Chain-free renovation opportunity near Ipswich station — auction sale, buyers’ fees apply.
Three bedroom semi-detached with bay front and two reception rooms
A three-bedroom bay-fronted semi with genuine value-add potential in Ipswich’s Belstead Road. The property is offered freehold, chain-free and benefits from two reception rooms, a garage and an extensive rear garden that would reward sensible landscaping or redevelopment.
The house requires comprehensive refurbishment — cosmetic updating, likely modernisation of services and garden clearance are needed. Sold by modern auction with an undisclosed reserve, buyers should budget for the non-refundable reservation fee and buyer’s costs, and complete their own checks before bidding.
For a hands-on investor or experienced DIY buyer this home presents a clear price-to-potential opportunity: period features (bay windows, fireplaces) and a convenient location near shops, schools and the mainline station make it lettable or suitable for resale after works. Note the property sits in a high-crime, deprived area, so factor refurbishment costs and rental/management considerations into any offer.
Viewings are recommended for those familiar with auction purchases and renovation projects. The sale process and additional fees mean this is best suited to cash buyers or buyers with auction-capable finance and willingness to proceed quickly.
