A well-presented three-bedroom Victorian semi-detached home on Alpe Street, a short walk from Christchurch Park and Ipswich town centre. The house blends period character—bay window, stripped pine floors and original doors—with a later rear extension that provides a modern kitchen/breakfast room and practical downstairs wet room. Outside, a south-facing rear garden and a powered quadruple-bay outbuilding create useful outdoor and workspace options.
Practical features include off-street parking to the front, a recently installed gas combi boiler, mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002). The current EPC is D (63) with potential to improve to B (83) with targeted works. The property sits on a small plot and has solid brick walls assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should factor in possible insulation/energy-improvement costs if aiming to raise efficiency.
The house will suit families or buyers seeking a character home with room to adapt: the outbuilding could become a home office or studio, and the loft and airing cupboard provide additional storage. Be aware the local area records higher crime and very high deprivation levels; the setting is an urban cultural mix close to good schools, transport links and town amenities, making it a practical, well-located choice for those prioritising location and period features over rural tranquillity.
