This two-bedroom apartment in Balfour Close, Northampton, offers a reasonably priced entry point to the housing market. The property’s location in Kingsthorpe South provides access to local amenities, including highly-rated schools such as Northgate School Arts College (Outstanding Ofsted rating) and Cambian Northampton School (Good Ofsted rating), which are within walking distance. The proximity to Northampton Train Station also enhances convenience. The apartment itself is presented in a clean and tidy condition, though the photographs reveal it is not recently renovated. The kitchen and bathroom appear functional yet somewhat dated, meaning some potential buyers might factor in renovation costs as part of their overall purchase. Notably, this is an apartment, so there is no private outdoor space. For buyers prioritising garden space, this would likely be a considerable drawback. The list price appears competitive when comparing to other similar properties in the immediate area; however, a detailed comparison is hampered by the absence of precise square footage data for most nearby listings. Overall, the property represents a viable option for first-time buyers or investors looking for a reasonably priced property in a convenient location, but the lack of outdoor space and some potential for minor renovations should be considered.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
