96 High Street, Upton, Northampton

This leasehold apartment is available at £180,000 for the whole apartment or £45,000 for 25% on a shared ownership basis (with a rent of £433 per month), with the option to purchase a greater share after six months, so a great opportunity for a first time buyer or someone looking for that flexibility.

This elegant property is located on the corner of High Street and Mill Pond Drive and whilst appearing to be an elegant town house it is in fact three apartments, one per floor.  A door, with entry phone intercom adjacent, leads into the communal entrance hall with access to the rear car park and stairs that takes us up to our apartment on the second floor.

The front door leads into the central entrance hall with doors leading off to all rooms.  There are two large cupboards in the hall, one for storage, the other containing the gas boiler providing gas central heating throughout the apartment, there are also double glazed sash windows and laminate flooring (except for the bathroom) throughout.  To either side of the hall are bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, bedroom 1 to the front and bedroom 2 to the rear together with the family bathroom.  At the end of the hall a door takes us into the open plan kitchen/dining/living room with a feature fire surround, windows to two elevations and a well fitted kitchen in a neutral shade.

Outside there is private allocated parking for one vehicle in the car park to the rear of the building.

The property is held on a 125 year lease with 109 years remaining with a peppercorn rent and the annual service charge is currently £2428.
