Set just back from Ipswich Waterfront, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a practical modern home or rental opportunity. The living space opens onto a balcony and benefits from an allocated resident parking space in a gated development. With no onward chain and a 102-year lease remaining, the flat is straightforward to purchase — but it is offered to cash buyers only.
Internally the apartment is contemporary and well presented, with an open-plan reception and kitchen, a generous master bedroom with en-suite, a second double bedroom and a separate bathroom. Constructed around 1996–2002 and double-glazed, the property sits at about 726 sq ft and will suit buyers who want a low-effort move-in or landlords seeking immediate rental potential close to town, university and the waterfront amenities.
Buyers should note material running costs and tenure details: electric storage heating may mean higher energy bills compared with gas, and the property is leasehold with an annual service charge (approx. £2,307) and modest ground rent (£150). The immediate area is an inner-city, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with higher-than-average crime statistics — important for both owner-occupiers and investors to consider when budgeting for security and insurance.
Overall, this is a straightforward, modern apartment in a prime Ipswich location for a buyer able to proceed in cash. It offers convenience, nearby amenities and rental appeal, balanced by leasehold costs and local area considerations.
