About
Positioned opposite Ipswich School and backing on to Christchurch Park, is a five-bedroom detached home situated within this highly desirable area of Ipswich.
Located on the highly desirable Henley Road within the historic core of residential Ipswich, No.10 is set behind established beech hedging and with the benefit of direct access to Christchurch Park beyond the rear garden.
Presenting a red brick facade with sash windows, the property was constructed in 2001 to sympathetically blend with the local vernacular.
The accommodation which extends to over 2,200 sq ft offers a large living room with fire and double doors to the rear garden, whilst to the front of the property there are two further reception rooms arranged as a snug and study respectively.
To the rear of the property and orientated to the east is the kitchen/dining room, with integrated appliances and central island unit, and completing the ground floor is the utility room with external access and cloakroom.
Stairs rise to the first floor to offer a large principal bedroom, oriented to the east, with Juliet balcony along with walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom.
There are three further double bedrooms, one with en suite, along with a smaller fifth room and family bathroom.
OUTSIDE Fronting Henley Road there is gated personnel access through the Beech arch, with vehicular access from Bridle Way leading to the drive with parking for two vehicles along with the detached double garage.
Gated access leads to the private and enclosed east facing garden which is mainly laid to lawn and enclosed with established laurel and evergreen hedging, whilst to the front is a small area of lawned garden and established wisteria.
LOCATION 10 Henley Road lies on the Northern side of Ipswich and adjoins the historic and picturesque Christchurch Park.
The top performing Ipswich School, together with its prep department, is a ‘stone’s throw’ from the front door, and within walking distance are all of the town’s central amenities, its pubs, restaurants, shops and offices, together with its rail station from where regular main line rail services run to London’s Liverpool Street station in about 70 minutes.
The town is bypassed by the A12 and A14 dual carriageways which link to London’s M25, Stansted Airport as well as Cambridge and the Midlands.
Recreationally there are numerous golf courses on the edge of town, whilst the East Coast, Orwell and Deben Estuaries offer a wide range of water sport opportunities.
