Well-located, modern apartment ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Two double bedrooms suitable for small families or sharers
Open-plan lounge/diner with Juliet balcony and natural light
Modern kitchen; updated and ready for use
Permit parking for two vehicles — uncommon convenience
No onward chain; 170-year lease after extension
Service charge approximately £1,200 per year
Electric storage heating — can increase energy costs
Modest overall size and limited private outdoor space
This compact first-floor apartment offers a practical entry into homeownership with two double bedrooms and a light-filled open-plan lounge/diner. Positioned close to the marina and within walking distance of Ipswich town centre, it suits buyers wanting easy access to shops, transport links and A12/A14 commutes.
The flat is presented in a modern style with a recently updated kitchen, Juliet balcony to the lounge and permit parking for two vehicles — a useful rarity for this area. The lease has been extended, now running approximately 170 years, and the property is offered with no onward chain, which helps simplify purchase timing.
Buyers should note a few material points: this is a modestly sized apartment (around 582 sq ft) with limited private outdoor space and reliance on electric storage heaters, which can affect running costs. It is leasehold with an average service charge of about £1,200 per year and potential additional leasehold-related fees (e.g., packs). The local area records above-average crime levels and broader area deprivation, so buyers should factor neighbourhood context into their decision.
For a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance, well-located two-bedroom flat close to transport and amenities, this property represents a practical, chain-free opportunity. A viewing and independent checks will confirm suitability and running costs for your circumstances.
