Northgate Street

An imposing three storey townhouse believed to date from the 15th Century positioned within the heart of the county town of Ipswich.

Situated within a central town position and fronting a one-way street, the imposing red brick façade is nestled between characterful Listed buildings, and arranged over three storeys extending to some 3,310 sq ft.

The property, with original parts dating from the 15th Century, has an abundance of charm and character throughout, with the Georgian era offering classic proportions, most notably the stunning first-floor reception room spanning the full width of the building.

The accommodation arrangement offers great versatility and rooms could easily be reconfigured to suit the new owners use, with up to six bedrooms if desired, one of which with inbuilt bunkbeds. There are currently three bathrooms, two of which are located on the first floor, and one of these is Jack & Jill and accessed from the rear stairwell.

Outside, the suntrap rear garden is orientated to the southwest and offers a high degree of privacy, considering the central town location. Well established, the walled courtyard garden is paved across two levels with central ornamental pond and vistas to Ipswich Minster.

Whilst there is no direct parking on the property, the adjacent Ipswich & Suffolk Club benefits from a large car park, with a variety of membership options offering parking and visitor permits. There is an EV charging point at the property.
