The property is located on York Road in the Castle area of Northampton. It’s a terraced house with a plot size of 1,636.90 sqft and a total area of 3,949.50 sqft. The list price is £320,000.

The location is good, with several schools within a reasonable distance, including Progress Schools - Northamptonshire (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted), Vernon Terrace Primary School (rated ‘Good’), Castle Academy (rated ‘Good’), and Northampton International Academy (rated ‘Good’). Northampton train station is also relatively close by at 2.06km. This proximity to amenities and transport links makes the location desirable.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be a period property, retaining traditional features while showing signs of age. While the interior is currently used as office space, it appears to be well-maintained, though some updating or renovation might enhance its appeal as a residential property. The property has a small garden.

Considering the average house price in the area is £302,231 and the average price per sqft is £288, this property, at £320,000, is slightly higher than average. However, given its significantly larger size (3,949.50 sqft compared to the average of 1,047 sqft) and its period features, the price seems relatively reasonable, although a detailed structural survey would be advisable to assess any potential maintenance needs. The price per sqft, while not directly comparable due to the lack of sqft data for nearby properties, is not unusually high considering the size and location.

The property shows evidence of traditional architecture and detailing. The garden, while seemingly overgrown in the images, shows potential for improvement.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
