This substantial five-bedroom Victorian terrace on Birchfield Road offers generous, flexible accommodation across four floors and is sold with no onward chain. Original period features, high ceilings and bay-fronted principal rooms provide strong character and scope to create a bespoke family home. The cellar with higher-than-typical ceilings and a private double garage accessed via a gated service road are notable practical benefits.
The property requires full modernisation throughout; many rooms would benefit from updating and cosmetic renewal. Services and appliances have not been tested and the house currently lacks modern internal insulation; buyers should budget for refurbishment costs and potential improvement works. EPC is awaiting and the property is offered freehold with Council Tax Band D.
Positioned in Abington, the house is close to local shops, well-regarded primary and secondary schools, Abington Park, and good transport links into Northampton town centre and the M1. Mobile signal and broadband speeds are excellent, supporting home working. The location has areas of deprivation and a high local crime rate, which should be considered when evaluating suitability and resale potential.
Overall, the house will suit buyers seeking a large period property to renovate—particularly families needing multiple bedrooms or investors targeting a refurbishment opportunity with secure parking and significant scope to add value.
