- Short walk to town centre, shops and transport links
- Both flats require modest updating and decorating
- One flat needs energy-efficiency works; EPCs currently E and F

- Older construction with assumed lack of wall insulation and roof issues
A rare paired opportunity in Wellingborough town centre: two self-contained flats sold together (ground floor and first floor) with the freehold included. Both units have separate kitchens and shower rooms, making them straightforward to let or manage as part of a small portfolio. The location is a short walk from local shops, transport links and schools.
The flats are offered at an affordable price to reflect their condition. Both properties require modest updating and one flat will need energy-efficiency improvements to meet modern letting standards (current EPCs E and F). There are some cosmetic repairs and reported roof issues; internal fixtures and décor are dated but serviceable.
Practical considerations: the site has pedestrian-only access with no off-street parking, a small front garden and limited private outdoor space. The building is older (pre-1900 stone construction with no assumed insulation and secondary glazing) and sits in an area with medium flood risk and higher local crime rates—factors that affect insurance, lettings and some refurbishment choices.
For an investor or buyer prepared to carry out targeted upgrades, this pair of flats offers immediate rental potential and future value uplift once energy efficiency and cosmetic works are completed. Ownership of the freehold simplifies long-term management and provides control over future improvements.
