Redan Street, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP1

This stunning Victorian town house offers versatile family accommodation over four floors, which includes two superb outside entertaining spaces and a large home office/studio in the south-facing garden.

The beautifully presented accommodation includes a lower ground floor which opens directly onto the garden and a sitting/family room opening onto the large balcony. There is also a fantastic home office/studio.

Redan Street is one of a number of roads leading off Orford Street, which is situated on the northern side of the town centre. This area has its own neighbourhood which is highly sought-after by the locals. Many commuters prefer this side of Christchurch Park as it provides easier access to the A12/A14 and Mainline Station.

The current owner has installed a large home office which is currently used as an artist studio but would make a lovely garden room.

A traditionally recessed storm porch has a stained glass door leading to the reception hall which has stairs to the first floor and lower ground floor, plus twin glazed doors leading to the reception areas. The sitting room has a bay window to the front and an open archway through to the family room which has an open coal-effect gas fire with oak surround and granite hearth, plus bi-fold doors which opens onto a large composite decked balcony measuring 13' x 11'6, which is enclosed by iron railings and steps leading down to the garden.

The lower ground floor has a hallway with tiled floor, upvc door to the garden and walk-in pantry, plus door to the kitchen. This has upvc French doors to the rear garden, a range of base and eye-level units, work tops, one and a half bowl ceramic sink with separate drinking tap and water softener below. There are also glass-fronted display cabinets and a brush-steel Rangemaster oven with matching extraction chimney above. An open arch leads to the dining area with bay window to the front and cast-iron fireplace.

The first floor landing has stairs to the second floor, a window to the rear and doors off. The main bedroom is of generous proportion with a bay window and further window to the front, a cast-iron fireplace with built-in cupboard. Adjacent is the large family bathroom which has a window to the rear and features a modern centrally positioned roll-top bath, basin on granite top with cupboard below, WC and walk-in shower. There is a range of cupboards to one wall, one of which houses the water tank.

The second floor landing has doors off to three further bedrooms, one at the rear with dormer window and cast-iron fireplace, two at the front, one with velux window, and another with a further dormer and cast-iron fireplace.
