Summary - 8, Burgess Place, Martlesham Heath IP5 3QZ
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Two-bedroom starter home with garden and fast broadband.
Chain free freehold property on a decent plot
A well-proportioned two-bedroom semi-detached house offered chain free on a decent plot in Martlesham Heath. The property has a practical layout with an entrance lobby, living room and good-sized kitchen on the ground floor, and two bedrooms plus a bathroom upstairs — suitable for first-time buyers seeking straightforward, ready-to-move-in accommodation.
Key conveniences include freehold tenure, double glazing (installed before 2002) and ultrafast broadband availability, making the house comfortable for modern living and remote working. The enclosed rear garden and additional front/side lawns provide private outdoor space and scope for low-cost landscaping or a small extension subject to checks.
Buyers should note the property is heated by electric storage heaters and runs on mains electricity; this can mean higher running costs compared with gas. The glazing and heating are functional but dated, so there is potential to improve energy efficiency and reduce bills. Local crime levels are described as high — prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on safety and security arrangements.
Positioned about six miles east of Ipswich with easy A12/A14 access and a good range of local amenities, the house sits close to several schools (including outstanding and good-rated primary and secondary options). It represents a pragmatic entry into home ownership with scope to add value through targeted improvements.
