A chain-free Victorian semi in North West Ipswich offering three double bedrooms and a large lounge/diner across an 838 sq ft footprint. The house has generous rear garden space with a powered workshop and lean-to, ideal for gardeners, hobbyists or families wanting outdoor space and potential to extend (subject to planning). Practical layout includes a separate utility room and an under-stairs storage cupboard.
The interior is serviceable but dated: original solid-brick construction with double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators, and simple sanitary fittings. The property will reward updating and cosmetic refurbishment; improvements such as insulation to solid walls, modern kitchen and bathroom installations, and loft access enhancements would add value.
Location benefits include good bus links into Ipswich, quick access to the A14 and nearby schools rated Good to Outstanding. The home is freehold with a low council tax band B and no onward chain, making it suitable for first-time buyers aiming to add value or investors seeking a refurbishment project.
Buyers should note the mid-terrace/victorian build likely lacks wall insulation, the bathroom has an electric shower and limited loft access (no ladder), and the neighbourhood records above-average crime — factors to consider for budgeting upgrades and security measures. An early viewing will best assess layout and potential.
