This bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace offers a straightforward, affordable route into West Ipswich. The house has two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a good-size rear garden — practical spaces for a first home or rental. Sold freehold and chain-free, it supports a quick purchase.
The property is essentially sound but requires updating: fittings and finishes are dated, roof shows moss, and the solid brick walls likely lack modern insulation. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is secondary. The EPC is D, so buyers should budget for energy improvements if desired.
Location is a strong practical draw — close to schools (including an Outstanding junior school), shops, buses and local amenities, with fast broadband and average mobile signal. Note the area records high crime and very high deprivation; buyers should weigh this against the low asking price, cheap council tax and strong rental demand in the neighbourhood.
For a first-time buyer or investor willing to modernise, the house presents clear potential: cosmetic refurbishment, added insulation and energy upgrades would improve comfort and value. The small plot and modest internal size (about 896 sqft) set realistic expectations for layout and external space.
