About
Tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac towards the southwest side of Ipswich, and offering good access out to the A12 and A14 commuter trunk roads and mainline train station, lies this nicely presented three-bedroom split-level bungalow.
The bungalow occupies a good-sized plot in an elevated position with views across rooftops and comes with an off-road parking space and a carport, and a private and non-overlooked rear garden with rear access out to a woodland area and public footpath.
As agents, we recommend the earliest possible internal viewing to appreciate the quality of accommodation on offer which is split over two levels with the entrance hall, cloakroom, 21ft lounge/dining room, and modern kitchen on the lower level, with the bathroom and three good-sized bedrooms being on the upper level.
