Two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace, freehold, 646 sq ft
Walking distance to town centre and Ipswich train station
Gas central heating and double glazing throughout
Private enclosed rear patio; small plot, on-street permit parking
Periodic tenancy in place — sold with occupancy (income or vacant option)
Dated galley kitchen and bathroom; requires modernization
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated; consider insulation costs
High local crime and very deprived area may affect rents/management
This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace in Ipswich town centre presents a straightforward investment opportunity within walking distance of the train station and local amenities. The property is freehold, offers gas central heating, double glazing throughout, and a private enclosed rear patio — practical features that support let-ability and low immediate capital expenditure.
Internally the layout is simple: open-plan lounge/diner, long galley kitchen and a ground-floor bathroom; two bedrooms occupy the first floor. The kitchen and bathroom are dated and would benefit from modernization to raise rental value or resale appeal. Walls are original solid brick with assumed no insulation — upgrading thermal performance should be considered if you plan longer-term ownership.
A periodic tenancy is currently in place, so the purchase suits a buyer seeking an occupied income stream or a short-notice refurbishment route. Note the area scores high for crime and is in a very deprived local authority area; these factors can depress rents and may affect management costs and void risk. Street permit parking only; no private off-street parking and the rear plot is small.
For an investor targeting central Ipswich, the combination of low council tax, close transport links and compact two-bedroom accommodation offers easy-to-manage tenancy potential. Budget for kitchen/bathroom upgrades, possible insulation works and active estate management given local social and crime statistics.
