Description

COMPLETE CHAIN

Offered to the market is this modern two-bedroom mid-terraced property, situated in the popular location of Kingsley. The property benefits from a fantastic sized garden, a garage, UPVc double glazing and gas central heating. As you enter the property, you enter into a porch that leads to the entrance hallway, offering access to a living room with a bay window. Also accessed via the hallway and to the rear of the property is a well proportioned kitchen/diner, fitted with base and wall-mounted units. Just off the kitchen there is access to the conservatory and the large rear garden. The garden is mainly laid to lawn and benefits from a garage that can be accessed via a gated service road. On the first floor, you will find two bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom suite. Externally, the property also boasts a low-maintenance front garden. Viewing is highly recommended. 


Murray Avenue runs adjacent to St. George's Avenue and the Racecourse Park, situated approximately one mile from Northampton town centre. The area benefits from good proximity to the Kettering Road and Barrack Road, two of the main thoroughfares in the town, offering a wide range of bars and restaurants. The Racecourse Park is a large recreational area popular with dog walkers and exercise enthusiasts. The area is well served for schooling, with the well-regarded Northampton School for Boys and Northampton School for Girls both nearby. Northampton Railway Station is approximately 1.5 miles away, where there are mainline services to both Birmingham and London Euston.

  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
  • Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
  • Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
