Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom apartment in Kingsthorpe South, Northampton, presents a mixed bag. Its location is a positive, offering reasonable access to amenities, schools, and transport. The proximity to Northgate School, rated Outstanding by Ofsted, is a significant plus. The property is a 50% shared ownership, indicating potential for future full ownership. However, the photos suggest the property requires some updating and maintenance, particularly in the living areas and kitchen. The complete lack of private outdoor space is a considerable drawback for many buyers, and this must be taken into consideration. The price of £73,500 is comparatively low and reflects the property’s condition and the shared ownership arrangement. Potential buyers should carefully weigh the pros and cons: convenient location, good schools nearby versus necessary improvements, limited land and the shared ownership model. A thorough viewing and independent valuation are strongly recommended before making an offer. The price per square foot information is needed for a complete analysis of whether this is good value compared to the market, for similar sized properties.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
