Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom ground floor flat in Poppy Fields, Kettering, offers a potentially good investment opportunity or a suitable home for first-time buyers or downsizers. The property’s location is a key strength; its proximity to the Kettering General Hospital, town centre, and mainline train station provides great convenience. Several well-regarded schools are within a short distance, making it attractive to families. The development itself appears quiet and well-maintained, enhancing its overall appeal. However, the property’s interior requires some attention. The photos indicate the need for some modernisation and cleaning to bring it to a higher standard. The kitchen and bathrooms, in particular, are showing their age and could benefit from updating. The absence of outdoor space is a notable drawback. The lack of garden may not be a dealbreaker for all buyers, however, it’s important to weigh this factor against the positives. The listing price of £130,000 seems reasonable relative to comparable properties, making it a competitive option within the Kettering market. The fact that it is already tenanted, generating a rental income of approximately £900 per month, adds to its value proposition for those considering investment purposes. In summary, this property provides a good mix of convenient location, accessibility, and relative affordability, but it requires potential buyers to acknowledge and budget for potential upgrade projects.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
