Description
This three-bedroom home in east Ipswich is offered with no onward chain and provides two reception rooms, a separate kitchen and a family bathroom. The front lounge has a bay window and gas fireplace, while the second reception room has access to the rear garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a single bedroom, with storage including an airing cupboard.
The property is described as requiring modernisation, offering scope to update the existing accommodation. Outside, there is off-road parking via a shared side driveway, a generous rear garden, a detached storage garage and a further brick-built outbuilding. Local shops, schools, parks and everyday services are nearby, with Ipswich town centre around two miles away and transport links serving the railway station and the A12 and A14.

34out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This is a medium-scale modernisation project with useful fundamentals: three bedrooms, two reception rooms, off-road parking and a generous rear garden, plus no onward chain. The dated finishes across the photographed rooms give a buyer scope to refresh the interiors, while the garden and hardstanding could also be improved; the visible main elevations appear generally intact.
The score stays cautious where combining the asking price with a non-cosmetic refurb leaves all-in costs stretched versus area norms for this size — around 27% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today. That is why the overall grade stays low; we have not forecast value after improvement.
Key opportunities
- Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom as part of a coordinated interior update.
- Refresh décor and flooring across the photographed reception rooms and bedrooms.
- Improve the patchy rear garden, worn hardstanding and weathered boundaries, making better use of the outdoor space.
Key risks
- At the asking price, adding a mid-to-substantial programme of works leaves the overall spend looking stretched against local benchmarks for a home of this floor area.
- The all-in picture is soft when the asking price sits alongside the indicated works scale — around 27% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today. Finished value after works is not modelled here.
