This chain-free three-bedroom end-terrace on Centre Parade offers an affordable entry into Kettering with generous front and rear gardens and off-street parking for multiple vehicles. The open-plan living/dining layout and a modern kitchen provide comfortable everyday living while the plot size gives scope for outdoor improvement or extension (subject to planning).
The house is compact at about 743 sq ft but arranged traditionally over two storeys with two double bedrooms and a single third bedroom. Practical features include mains gas central heating, a boiler with radiators and double glazing (installed before 2002). Nearby amenities, regular buses and several well-rated primary and secondary schools add convenience for families and first-time buyers.
Buyers should note material considerations honestly: the property sits in a generally deprived, hard-pressed neighbourhood and external areas show dated elements that will need attention. The glazing is older and the house — built c.1950–66 — may require updating over time. Crime levels and mobile signal are average. This home suits a buyer wanting affordable ownership now, with potential to personalise and increase value.
Overall, the house is a practical, chain-free starter or investment with outdoor space and parking as notable strengths. Expect to budget for cosmetic refreshes and consider the wider area profile when deciding.
