Spacious ground-floor two-bedroom flat with long lease and low charges, minutes from Wellingborough station..
Ground-floor two-bedroom purpose-built flat
A roomy ground-floor two-bedroom flat that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking low-maintenance living close to transport links. The layout includes a long lounge/diner, two generous double bedrooms, fitted kitchen and bathroom, plus a small sheltered terrace overlooking green space. PVCu double glazing and a modern kitchen and bathroom keep immediate work minimal.
Practical running costs are a strength: a very long lease (c.981 years remaining), low service charge (£223.50pa), modest ground rent (£150pa) and an EPC C rating. One allocated parking space sits to the front and there is communal green space to the rear by Castle Fields, making the flat easy to manage and let.
Notable considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating and may affect comfort and costs in winter. The property is leasehold, and while charges are low they do apply. The wider area records higher crime levels, which may be a concern for some buyers and could influence rental demand or insurance costs.
Overall the flat presents as tidy and lived-in, needing only cosmetic updating for buyers wanting to personalise. Its combination of long lease, low overheads and proximity to Wellingborough station and town centre make it a practical, affordable option for a first home or a straightforward investment.
