Summary - 24 Devonshire Road IP3 8AS
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable three-bed near waterfront and university, ideal for first-time buyers.
Three bedrooms in a compact Victorian mid-terrace
A compact three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Devonshire Road, offered freehold and presented as an affordable entry to Ipswich’s east side. The house sits a short walk from the waterfront, University of Suffolk and local amenities, and falls within the Copleston School catchment (subject to availability). Broadband and mobile signal are good, making it practical for study or remote working.
The layout comprises a lounge, kitchen, ground-floor family bathroom and three first-floor bedrooms, with a small rear garden and on-street parking typical of urban terraces. The property has double glazing (installation date unknown) and a mains-gas boiler with radiators; the EPC is reported as C. The footprint is small (about 549 sq ft) so rooms are compact — a layout well suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a city-centre rental.
Built before 1900 from solid brick, the home offers period character but also practical considerations: walls are assumed uninsulated and some updating is likely needed to meet modern standards. The surrounding neighbourhood is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics, which is an important factor for buyers to consider when assessing long-term value and rental demand.
Overall this is a budget-friendly purchase in a convenient Ipswich location with clear rental potential and good digital connectivity. Buyers should plan for typical Victorian-terrace maintenance and potential improvement works to maximise comfort and future resale or rental income.
