Set on Newnham Road in Kingsthorpe, this one-bedroom leasehold apartment offers an affordable entry to the Northampton market. Offered chain-free and recently redecorated throughout, the flat benefits from double glazing, an average-sized living room, and a compact fitted kitchen. With 528 sq ft and 97 years remaining on the lease, it suits a first-time buyer or landlord seeking a straightforward, low-cost purchase.
Practicalities to note: heating is via electric storage heaters and the property sits within a very deprived area with higher local crime rates, which may affect resale or rental appeal. Service charge and ground rent details are not provided and should be confirmed before offer. There is no private garden, but residents share a communal lawn with mature trees.
The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and the flat’s accommodation is compact — standard ceiling heights, small rooms and only basic kitchen fittings. The recent redecoration and double glazing reduce immediate cosmetic work, but electrical, heating and improvement costs (to personalise or modernise) should be considered.
Strengths include a low asking price, chain-free sale, fast broadband and good local amenities and schools nearby. For a buyer looking for an economical starter home or a simple rental unit, this property presents clear value provided due diligence is carried out on lease costs and local factors.
