Property Highlights
Located in a popular part of Wellingborough within close walking distance to the train station and town centre. In addition to this there are convenient travel links by car with the A45 and A509 close by and Rushden Lakes is accessible in around 10 minutes.

The Living Room, accessed from the Dining Room, is naturally light from the window to the front elevation and features timber effect laminate flooring, a timber mantelpiece, and a tiled hearth. The fireplace is currently boarded up, however, it would be ideal for fitting a wood burner (subject to relevant regulations).
Generously sized Dining Room with a window to the rear elevation, timber effect laminate flooring, and an opening with a step leading to the Kitchen. The Living and Dining Room were previously open plan and can be easily reverted back to this layout with minimal work.
