Summary Continued

Other Improvements carried out in the refurbishment five years ago included the installation of a then brand new kitchen with integrated appliances to remain and the opening up of the lounge/diner and kitchen into one large open plan family room. The bathroom was upgraded to include the installation of electric underfloor heating and a vanity unit, extensive new flooring throughout the property includes wooden laminate flooring in the hall, family room/dining room and kitchen areas whilst the original parquet flooring has been enhanced in the lounge, new carpets on the stairs, landing and all three bedrooms. The property has been extensively re-decorated throughout including re-skimmed plastering to the kitchen area, a combi boiler which has been regularly serviced and new windows were installed in the back two bedrooms.

Both the original sellers carrying out the previous improvements and the current sellers in the last four years have been careful to maintain and enhanced some of the original character of the property which includes picture rails and panelled doors. Furthermore a very nice electric Victorian style flame-effect fire has been installed on a tiled hearth and wood surround in the lounge and a woodburner (multi-fuel stove) has been installed in the family room/dining room.

To the rear of the property there is a patio area which is a real suntrap in the mornings, it then opens out behind the garage to incorporate a very nice sheltered and secluded seating area which will get the sun for a good part of the day. The rear garden is good for anyone with dogs or young children as it is fully enclosed by good conditioned panel fencing, it is a good size and easy to maintain being mainly laid to lawn.

The property is extremely conveniently located for a selection of local shops including a post office and is a short walk from a Co-op with extensive opening hours on Colchester Road itself. Additionally Ipswich town Centre and Christchurch Park area are within walking distance.

Another major benefit of the property is that the current owners are purchsing an already empty property so there is no further onward chain beyond that property. An early internal viewing is advised as to not miss out.
