Quietly tucked close to Corby town centre, this ground-floor two-double-bedroom flat offers a straightforward entry into ownership or a rental investment. The accommodation includes an open lounge/diner with fireplace, separate kitchen, utility/store room and a practical walk-in wet room. Communal green space sits to front and rear, with allocated storage barns and on-street parking.
The property is leasehold with around 92 years remaining and is offered chain free — helpful for a quick move or purchase. At about 711 sq ft the layout is conventional and useable for a starter home or buy-to-let; mains gas central heating, a combi boiler and double glazing (pre-2002) are already in place. Nearby amenities include shops, cinema, swimming pool and several schools, all within walking distance.
Be realistic about the setting and condition: the block is a mid-20th-century system-built construction with external insulation and relatively low to standard ceilings. The local area is classified as deprived with very high recorded crime levels, which may affect future resale or rental demand. The flat will suit buyers prepared to accept the neighbourhood profile or to invest in modest cosmetic upgrading — the interior appears average-sized and practical rather than finished to a high standard.
Overall this is a pragmatic, affordable two-bedroom ground-floor flat ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking a city-centre location with immediate occupancy potential. Budget for minor updates and consider the neighbourhood factors when assessing long-term value.
