Summary - Humber Doucy Lane, Ipswich IP4 3NR
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Large mature garden with scope to extend and modernise.
Three bedrooms with traditional 1930s bay windows
A three-bedroom 1930s detached house set on a substantial plot on the eastern outskirts of Ipswich, ideal for a family seeking outdoor space and scope to modernise. The property retains period features such as bay windows and a traditional layout with two reception rooms plus a conservatory that links kitchen and dining areas. The rear garden is large and mature, with outbuildings and room for landscaping or extension (subject to consent).
The house needs renovation: it has solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), older heating and glazing of unknown installation date, and general modernisation throughout. Buyers should allow for refurbishment costs and a full survey before committing. It is freehold with mains gas, boiler and radiators, and no identified flood risk.
This sale is by Modern Auction. Bidders must note an undisclosed reserve price and pay a non-refundable reservation fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600 including VAT), plus up to £349 for the Buyer Information Pack. The auction process requires completion within 56 days and involves identity and funding checks, so buyers relying on mortgage finance should confirm lender timescales and criteria first.
Positioned near well-rated primary and secondary schools and with good broadband and mobile signal, the home suits families seeking space to improve and personalise. The wide driveway, garage and parking for multiple vehicles add everyday practicality, while the plot offers longer-term value through extension or landscaping potential (subject to planning).
