Description

This three-bedroom detached bungalow presents a distinctive opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. Nestled in a quiet location south of Ipswich, the home features a 1970s interior that is ripe for modernisation. Although well-maintained overall, with features such as replacement windows, a new roof from 2003, and a recently installed gas central heating boiler, the interiors remain dated and offer ample scope to create a contemporary family residence tailored to your preferences. The bungalow boasts spacious living areas including a wrap-around living room that leads seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen retains its original style but includes essential fixtures like wall and base units, an eye-level oven, and ample storage space. This layout provides an excellent foundation for reconfiguration or updating. Three bedrooms provide flexibility for family living or guest accommodation. The exterior of the property is equally promising; featuring a multi-level garden with both patio areas and lawn space that could be transformed into an outdoor haven, including the potential conversion of the existing outbuilding to suit leisure purposes. Conveniently located within walking distance to local amenities and just an 8-minute stroll from the train station, this property not only offers privacy but also accessibility to Ipswich’s bustling town centre.
