Two-bedroom terrace with cellar and garden — good size and extension potential for first-time buyers.
Extended two-bedroom Victorian terrace with generous living/dining space
A spacious two-bedroom Victorian terrace in St. James, extended to provide generous living and dining space. The ground floor benefits from a refitted kitchen and a large open-plan living/dining room, while two double bedrooms sit on the first floor. A useful cellar adds storage or scope for conversion (subject to checks), and the enclosed rear garden offers a lawn and decking for outdoor living.
The house has practical upgrades including a refitted shower room, gas central heating and uPVC double glazing. It sits close to local shops, good primary schools and Northampton town centre with its transport links — a convenient spot for first-time buyers looking for size and potential in an urban area.
Buyers should note the property is an older, solid-brick build (pre-1900) with assumed lack of wall insulation, and the double glazing install date is unknown. The area records higher crime and local deprivation indicators; purchasers should factor neighbourhood considerations into their plans. There is scope to extend further to the rear, subject to planning and party-wall constraints.
Overall this is a well-presented starter home with clear potential to personalise and improve. It suits a first-time buyer or small household seeking space, low council tax, and easy access to amenities, provided they are comfortable with the local area profile and potential retrofit costs for insulation or modernisation.
