3 bed terraced house for sale

Bruce Street, Northampton, Northamptonshire NN5

Situated on Bruce Street, Northampton, this three bedroom Victorian terraced house offers spacious accommodation arranged over two floors, a number of attractive period features and excellent potential for modernisation. Having been well cared for over the years, the property retains much of its original character and would make an ideal purchase for buyers looking to update a traditional home to their own taste.

The ground floor opens into an entrance hallway featuring attractive parquet flooring, leading into an open-plan living and dining room. This welcoming space benefits from a bay window to the front, a distinctive exposed timber beam separating the two areas and a beautiful Victorian feature fireplace, creating a charming focal point. The living accommodation is fitted with carpets and provides a good foundation for a future refurbishment.

The kitchen is positioned to the rear and features wooden worktops, a white ceramic-style sink, space for a washing machine, a gas hob with an electric oven and a stainless steel extractor hood. The existing cabinetry would benefit from updating, offering an opportunity to create a kitchen suited to individual preferences. A door leads to a rear passageway providing access to the garden, with a separate WC and a shower room located within a rear extension.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, comprising two bedrooms with fitted carpets and a principal bedroom featuring exposed original floorboards. The principal bedroom also benefits from built-in mahogany wardrobes positioned either side of the chimney breast. A useful storage cupboard is located on the landing, together with a loft hatch providing access to the unconverted loft space.

Further benefits include uPVC double-glazed windows and external doors to both the front and rear, a boiler installed a few years ago, an updated fuse board and smart meters. The property also benefits from a cellar, providing additional storage space, although it has not been converted for residential use.

Externally, the property is approached via a metal entrance gate leading to a small paved front garden. To the rear is a particularly generous garden for a Victorian terraced house, featuring a paved seating area, established planting beds and a useful concrete-surfaced section adjacent to the kitchen, together with a garden storage box.

While the property would benefit from cosmetic updating and modernisation, it presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a traditional Victorian home with character, useful existing features and scope to add personal touches over time.

The location offers convenient access to Northampton town centre, Northampton railway station, the home of Northampton Saints Rugby Club and Sixfields Retail Park. The property is also well placed for local amenities and a selection of primary schools within the surrounding area, making it an appealing option for a range of buyers.
