The property is awash with original Victorian feature fireplaces, one of which is still in working order plus a separate kitchen range incorporating a bread oven. This style is the more spacious style with all three double bedrooms and a separate first floor family bathroom from the landing. In addition to this is a downstairs cloakroom/utility room. The loft space has been fitted with increased insulation and is fitted with a loft ladder.
There is a delightful southerly facing sitting room plus a separate dining room and two kitchens.
In 2016 the property benefitted from replacement UPVC double glazed windows. The sellers were careful to ensure these were done in a sash window style matching the period of the property and this also included a tilt and slide system making the first floor windows easy to clean.
There was also in 2016 a new boiler which has been regularly serviced since and in 2021 the entire main roof of the property was re-roofed. All the slates were sorted, the good ones were re-used and any others were replaced and included new batons and some timberwork.

One of the sellers is a landscaped gardener by trade and the quality of the garden refurbishment is clear to see. The garden commences with an absolute suntrap paved area enclosed on one side by high brick wall of the neighbouring property and by panel fencing on the other. A sheltered and secluded southerly facing suntrap superb for alfresco dining, sitting out having a cup of tea or afternoon glass of wine, etc. Here there is an original Anderson shelter which is ideal for storage. Steps rise up through well stocked shrub borders to the next level which is mainly laid with bark with another wealth of established trees and shrubs and grape vines. There are two large grape vines which between them produce over 16kg of grapes which have gone on to be turned into a very nice wine.
When the vendors removed the rear chimney stack the bricks were reclaimed and used to make a very nice feature block paved pathway on the next level of the property which leads to a summerhouse which could make an ideal office or retreat. Adjacent to the summerhouse is a paved area with views over Ipswich town towards the church. There is a side passageway providing access back to the front of the property.
