Summary - 137 Cemetery Road, Ipswich IP4 2HR
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free period home near Christchurch Park — renovation needed, great school catchment.
No onward chain, freehold three-bedroom Victorian terrace
A traditional three-bedroom Victorian terrace set within walking distance of Christchurch Park and Ipswich town centre. The house retains original period features — high ceilings, bay window and coving — and benefits from a recent combi Vaillant boiler (about 10 years) and double glazing, offering a comfortable base with lower immediate running costs.
The layout suits family life: bay-fronted lounge with open fire, separate dining room, a useful walk-in larder and a large ground-floor shower room. Low-maintenance front and rear gardens provide private outdoor space without heavy upkeep. The property is chain free and freehold, and falls within the Northgate High School catchment (subject to availability).
Practical buyers should note the home requires some modernisation throughout. Walls are original solid brick (likely without modern cavity insulation) and some updates to fixtures, finishes and possible insulation are advisable. There is a single bathroom serving three bedrooms. The area has above-average local crime statistics and sits in a more deprived local economy, which may affect resale timing and tenant demand.
Overall this is a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers, families seeking proximity to parks and schools, or investors willing to refresh the property. The combination of period charm, central location and no onward chain creates clear potential, provided buyers budget for modest renovation and energy-efficiency improvements.
