This end-of-terrace three-bedroom house on Richmond Road is a straightforward, affordable entry point into Ipswich homeownership. Offered chain free and with double glazing, the property includes two reception rooms, a ground-floor bathroom and an enclosed rear garden — practical features for a growing household.
The house requires renovation throughout, so buyers should expect cosmetic and possibly deeper works to modernise heating, electrics and finishes. The layout is traditional and well-proportioned for its size (approximately 877 sq ft), giving scope to improve value through investment and sensible refurbishment.
Located in the west of Ipswich, the home sits close to local shops, frequent bus routes into town, and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools. The area offers fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, but note the neighbourhood scores higher for crime and is described as comparatively deprived; buyers should weigh local safety and community factors.
For first-time buyers or investor-purchase, the combination of a low asking price, freehold tenure and no onward chain presents clear potential. Realistic budgeting for renovation and an honest assessment of the local area will be essential to unlock the property’s value.
