Step into a spacious two-bedroom Victorian semi with generous rooms, original character and recent mechanical upgrades. High ceilings, cast-iron fireplaces and wood floors give immediate charm, while a newly fitted kitchen (Sept 2024) and new boiler (Jan 2025) reduce immediate maintenance costs.
The house offers practical extras: a large four-piece first-floor bathroom, a useful cellar with power and a small rear garden with three outbuildings (one with power and a WC). At about 1,155 sq ft, the layout suits first-time buyers wanting room to grow or buyers seeking rental potential close to town.
Location is a clear strength — walking distance to Christchurch Park, Ipswich town centre and Ipswich School, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council Tax Band C and freehold tenure are further positives.
Important facts: the area is classified as very deprived with higher-than-average crime, and the property’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, which contributes to its EPC D rating. Buyers should factor potential insulation or energy-efficiency upgrades into budgets.
Overall this is a character-filled, newly refreshed starter home with scope to personalise and improve energy performance, positioned for easy access to parks, schools and central Ipswich.
