Set within a handsome late-Victorian conversion, this refurbished ground-floor apartment enjoys a sunny south-facing lounge overlooking landscaped communal gardens that back directly onto Christchurch Park. The recent £15,000-plus upgrade includes a new Wren kitchen with induction hob and built-in oven, a full-width double shower, replacement sash-style double glazing and new flooring, so the apartment is ready to move into.
The layout offers two double bedrooms, a bathroom with separate WC and independent access via a gated courtyard. High ceilings, period mouldings, picture rails and a decorative fireplace give genuine Victorian character while modern touches and new blinds make the flat comfortable and bright. An allocated parking space and a sweep-in, sweep-out driveway add practical convenience.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (999-year lease from 2015; 989 years remaining) and there is a service charge of £2,344.16 per year which covers gardening, communal bins and buildings insurance. Heating is electric (wall heaters/room heaters), and the building’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so running costs may be higher than for gas-heated homes. The apartment is small (approximately 610 sq ft) but benefits from excellent broadband, very low local crime and immediate access to parkland.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking an attractive, low-maintenance home in a highly desirable Ipswich location — ideal for downsizers or professionals who value outdoor space and period character without heavy refurbishment work.
