The property has undergone a programme of virtually total redecoration within the last 4 years including some rooms that were even decorated as recent as this year.

Another huge addition and improvement is a timber extension which has been created by the current owners with a 16mm polycarbonate roof and 100m insulated timber walls with exterior feather boarding.

Summary Continued

The downstairs cloakroom is situated off the utility room by the rear door, very handy for people coming in from the garden not needing to trapse through the entire house.

This home has nice original features including some very nice panel doors, higher skirting boards etc.

Another major selling point of the property is the 140' easterly facing rear garden which is relatively easy to maintain and has a rear work area behind two sheds (which will remain).

There is a pitched roof brick built garage with double doors

A Tesco express supermarket is situated less than a five minute walk away and bus routes both in and out of town are at the end of the road on Foxhall Road. Furthermore, Ipswich Hospital is again less than a fifteen minute walk away.

The property has been thoroughly enjoyed by the current family for nearly nine years and the amount of upgrading and modernisation that has been carried out to the property is a credit to the current owners and is going to be of massive benefit to the very lucky new incoming purchasers.

The garden commences with a spacious patio area which is a real sun trap and ideal for sitting out having a morning cup of tea, an afternoon glass of wine or alfresco dining. Part of it is in the form of a covered seating area there is then a large area of lawn with the garage and summer house and a raised decking area for sitting out immediately to the rear of the summer house and again this is southerly facing so another real sun trap to enjoy.

The garden continues being laid to lawn with a neat well stocked shrub and shingle area plus there are two further sheds one on either side of the garden which the owner tells us will be remaining. These lead to the final section of the garden, partly concealed behind the sheds, which makes a superb work/storage area etc.
