A compact Victorian mid-terrace offering three bedrooms and period character in a central Ipswich location. The house sits close to Christchurch Park, the mainline station and town centre, making it practical for commuters and families seeking local amenities.
Internally the accommodation includes two reception rooms, a ground-floor bathroom, kitchen and utility, plus a bedroom with a dressing room/study. High ceilings, sash windows and a period fireplace retain original charm, while gas central heating and double glazing provide basic modern comforts. The small rear courtyard has double gates from Gymnasium Street and provides off-street parking.
The property is chain free and will suit buyers wanting a centrally located home or an investor targeting private-rented demand. It is largely unmodernised and will benefit from cosmetic updating; walls are likely solid brick with no insulation and further energy improvements may be needed. There is only one bathroom and limited external amenity space.
Location strengths include close walking distance to the train station and local schools, plus good mobile and broadband connectivity. Be aware the immediate area is described as very deprived with higher crime levels, which may concern some buyers and influence insurance or rental considerations.
