LINDA PRAISES PINNACLE

Linda Barker with NCHA  Director

of Housing Services David Richardson

The Pinnacle, is a radical piece of modern design standing 11-storeys high on the site of a former factory off Bridge Street.

This £20m development will provide 135 new households for people who will benefit from the many shops, bars, clubs and restaurants just a few minutes away.

As well as 25 rented homes (which received over £4m from the Housing Corporation) there will be 52 apartments for outright sale. There will also be 58 apartments for shared ownership so that people struggling to get onto the housing ladder have a chance to buy with prices starting from just £61,000 (50% share) for a one-bed apartment.

Purchasers will benefit from apartments that are fully carpeted, and spacious living rooms with balconies large enough to enjoy alfresco dining for two. An added incentive to town-centre living is a car parking space in the secure underground car park. Penthouse owners will also enjoy the luxury of 20-foot roof terraces with far-reaching views across Northants and two dedicated car parking spaces.

After she had released a string of balloons offering £1,000 discount off any purchase, Linda praised the high finish both internally and externally of The Pinnacle. "There has been a lot of attention to detail with high quality finishes to surfaces, flooring and doors. These apartments are more than just inner-city living, they are bringing a part of Northampton back to life.”
