This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Kingsthorpe, Northampton, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. The property’s location is a major asset, with convenient access to local schools like Green Oaks Primary Academy (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Kingsthorpe Grove Primary School (also rated ‘Good’). Northampton town centre is also within a reasonable commuting distance by car or public transport.

Inside, the property appears habitable but clearly requires modernisation. The kitchen and bathroom show their age, and an upgrade would significantly enhance the value and appeal of the property. The flooring is consistent throughout, showing signs of use. While the overall condition is not poor, significant improvements are needed for a more contemporary feel.

Externally, the property benefits from a rear garden that provides a private space. However, the current state of the decking and garden landscaping requires considerable work; a factor to consider in purchase price considerations.

Overall, this property is a viable option for those looking for a property in a desirable location but who are prepared for a renovation project. The list price reflects the balance between the property’s location and the need for updating. Potential buyers should factor in refurbishment costs before making an offer. Further investigation into the exact plot size and detailed structural survey would be beneficial before any commitment is made.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. Disclamer: This is our opition and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research.
