Summary - 8, GIPPESWYK ROAD IP2 9AB
4 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Period four-bed near station — renovation required, sold by modern auction.
- Four bedrooms and two reception rooms across three storeys
A four-bedroom Victorian townhouse on Gippeswyk Road offering immediate possession and clear scope to add value. Set close to Ipswich town centre and the mainline station, the property suits buyers seeking a commuter location with rental or refurbishment potential.
The house provides two reception rooms, two cellars and front and rear gardens with off-street parking. Double glazing and cast-iron fireplaces retain period character while the layout across lower-ground, first and second floors gives flexible living space for families or tenants.
Important practical points: the home requires renovation and modernisation throughout, relies on electric storage heating, and sits in a high-crime and generally deprived area. This sale is by modern auction with an undisclosed reserve, a non-refundable reservation fee and buyer costs — bidders must complete due diligence and allow for additional auction charges.
For buyers who can manage renovation work or want a buy-to-let opportunity close to transport links, this property offers a relatively low purchase price and decent plot potential; for purchasers seeking a move-in-ready home, the required updating and auction process are material drawbacks.
