Offered as an investment-only opportunity, this compact two-bedroom first-floor apartment sits a short walk from Kettering town centre, promising easy tenant appeal and immediate rental potential. The open-plan living/kitchen, allocated off-street parking and recent double glazing are practical draws for renters seeking low-maintenance urban accommodation.
The property is leasehold with approximately 106 years remaining, a service charge of £946 and ground rent of £200. It benefits from mains gas central heating, modern construction (2007–2011) and no recorded flood risk, but is small at around 410 sq ft so rental income will reflect that size.
Important considerations: the local area scores high for crime and is very deprived, which can affect rental demand, rental rates and re-letting periods. The sale is chain-free, but prospective purchasers should allow for leasehold costs and possible additional fees (lease packs, management) and commission surveys on services and structure before purchase.
