Security and convenience are strong practical advantages: gated car parking with remote fob access, building fob entry, intercom, internal/external CCTV and communal bicycle storage. The property is chain-free and about a five-minute walk from Kettering town centre and the train station with direct services to London, making it suitable for commuters or investor lettings.
