Summary - 70, COMPAIR CRESCENT IP2 0EH
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Chain-free two-bedroom top-floor flat with river views, parking permit and long lease near Ipswich station.
Top-floor two-bedroom flat with balcony and river views
Set on a modern riverside development a short walk from Ipswich station, this chain-free two-bedroom top-floor apartment offers straightforward urban living with a balcony and views across the River Orwell. The flat includes a lounge with balcony, separate kitchen, main bathroom and an en-suite to the principal bedroom — a practical layout for first-time buyers or landlords seeking rental income.
Practical ownership details are clear: long lease remaining (approximately 108 years), annual service charge around £2,240 and ground rent £250. Off-street residents’ parking is available by permit, broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for commuters and remote workers. The council tax band is low (Band B), helping keep running costs down.
Be realistic about the location: the area has high flood risk, very high crime statistics and scores as relatively deprived. These are material considerations for buyers and lenders and may affect insurance and resale. The apartment is leasehold and there are ongoing communal charges to factor into affordability calculations.
For a buyer prioritising transport links, short-term rental potential or an affordable entry into Ipswich, this property presents clear value: long lease, riverside outlook and proximity to amenities and rail links. For those prioritising low-risk neighbourhoods or minimal communal costs, the flood and crime records and service charge level are important negatives to weigh up before viewing.
