Summary - CLARENDON HOUSE, 39 APARTMENT 18 BRIDGE STREET NORTHAMPTON NN1 1NS
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free city-centre flat with buy-to-let flexibility and lift access.
Top-floor one-bedroom with Juliette balcony and lift access
A top-floor, one-bedroom apartment situated a short walk from Northampton town centre and both train and bus stations. The open-plan living/kitchen and Juliette balcony create a bright, efficient living space suited to a single occupant or couple. The block has a lift to all floors and the property is being sold with no onward chain, offering a straightforward purchase.
This is a sensible option for an investor or someone seeking central, low-maintenance city living. The current tenant pays £795 pcm (tenant in situ option stated) or the flat can be offered with vacant possession, giving flexibility for buy-to-let or owner-occupation. The 99-year lease and clear service charge history (last reported £1,417.50 p.a.) make the tenure predictable, though buyers should confirm charges and management details with their solicitor.
Practical drawbacks are clear: heating is via electric storage heaters and walls appear to have no installed insulation, which can increase running costs. The building dates from the 1950s–60s and there is double glazing with an unknown install date — buyers should budget for potential maintenance or modernisation. The immediate area is a busy, inner-city neighbourhood with high crime and local deprivation indicators, which will affect desirability for some purchasers.
Overall this is a compact, functional apartment offering central convenience and rental potential, balanced by genuine running-cost and location considerations that should be checked before purchase.
