7 bed 1 bath Detached
Seven bedrooms, large garden and school-adjacent location with excellent remodelling potential.
Approaching 2,700 sq.ft across three floors
A substantial Edwardian semi with nearly 2,700 sq.ft over three floors, offered with no onward chain and immediate scope for family life or further improvement. Located a short walk from Ipswich School and Christchurch Park, the house sits on a generous plot with a long 165ft rear garden, workshop and greenhouse — rare for a city location.
The house has been well maintained: it was rewired, has gas central heating and a modern Wren kitchen with integrated appliances and utility room. Many original features remain including high skirtings, cornices, sash windows and fireplaces, giving character throughout alongside contemporary updates.
Practical realities are clear: there are seven bedrooms but only one bathroom plus a separate WC, so sanitary provision is limited for a large household. The EPC rating is E and council tax is Band E, both factors buyers should weigh. The property offers excellent potential for remodelling or extension (subject to consents) to create additional bathrooms or reconfigure living space.
This will suit growing families seeking proximity to top schools and parkland, or buyers wanting a period home with space to adapt. The freehold tenure, off-street parking for two cars and very low local crime rate add to the appeal, while the large plot provides long-term value and outdoor opportunity.
