A compact two-bedroom mid-terraced house offering an affordable entry into Corby, minutes from shops, schools and the railway station. The property is chain free and freehold, with double glazing, mains gas central heating and a decent rear garden — useful extras for first-time buyers or investors seeking rental yield.
The interior has a traditional layout: lounge, kitchen/diner and two bedrooms with one bathroom. The house requires modernisation throughout, so expect cosmetic and possible service upgrades; the cavity walls are likely uninsulated and some fixtures are dated. Council tax is very cheap, broadband and mobile signals are strong, and the plot gives scope to improve outdoor space.
Location is practical: close to primary and secondary schools (several with Good or Outstanding Ofsted ratings), local shops, leisure facilities and Corby train links. Note the wider neighbourhood classifications — higher local crime and area deprivation — which buyers should factor into long-term plans and insurance or letting considerations.
This is a clear ‘‘project’’ for someone wanting a low-entry price to create value: ideal for a first home after renovation or an investor prepared to refurbish for the rental market. Material issues include the need for general modernisation and the local social context; a full inspection is recommended before committing.
