Set in the heart of Kettering town centre, this two double-bedroom first-floor apartment offers compact, modern living with easy access to shops, trains and local amenities. The open-plan kitchen/diner/lounge creates a sociable main space ideal for everyday life or entertaining, while two good-sized bedrooms and multiple storage cupboards keep clutter out of sight. Allocated off-street parking is a practical bonus in a central location where private outdoor space is limited.
The property is leasehold with 81 years remaining and a below-average service charge of £174pcm. Interiors are neutrally presented with a contemporary fitted kitchen and bathroom, making the flat broadly ready to occupy while leaving scope to personalise. At 624 sq ft the apartment suits a first-time buyer or couple wanting a town-centre base with straightforward commuter links (Kettering station nearby, approximately one hour to London St Pancras).
Be candid about the surrounding context: the immediate area is classified as deprived with higher-than-average local crime figures, and there is no private garden or substantial external amenity. These factors affect lifestyle and resale considerations, though the central location, parking and reasonable running costs may appeal to buyers prioritising convenience and rental potential.
Overall this is a practical, well-located two-bedroom apartment that balances central living and commuter convenience against limited outdoor space, leasehold term and local area challenges. An internal inspection is recommended to confirm condition and layout for your specific needs.
