About this home

Occupying one of Rushmere St. Andrew's most desirable positions, this substantial detached family home enjoys an exceptional setting backing directly onto the beautiful Rushmere Heath, offering a wonderful balance of generous living space, versatility and privacy. Extending to approximately 1,862 sq ft, the property has been thoughtfully arranged for modern family life. Alongside four well-proportioned bedrooms and generous reception space, the home also benefits from a former double garage which has been converted into two versatile rooms, providing excellent flexibility for a home office, gym, playroom or hobbies room, whilst ample driveway parking remains to the front. The welcoming entrance hall leads through to a superb dual-aspect sitting room measuring almost 20ft in length, complete with a feature fireplace and French doors opening into the dining room, creating an ideal space for both family living and entertaining. The separate dining room also enjoys French doors leading onto the rear garden. At the heart of the home is the beautifully appointed shaker-style kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with an excellent range of cabinetry, extensive work surfaces and space for a range cooker and American-style fridge freezer. The adjoining breakfast area provides an ideal everyday family space with direct access to the garden. Upstairs, the spacious landing serves four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a stylish contemporary en-suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom. The fourth bedroom is complemented by an adjoining study, creating an ideal home office, dressing room or nursery. Outside, the rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features. Beautifully landscaped with mature planting, established borders, an extensive lawn, pergola seating area and timber garden studio, it enjoys a wonderful backdrop directly onto Rushmere Heath, providing a peaceful and highly private setting rarely found. Situated within a quiet residential cul-de-sac, the property is ideally placed for excellent local schools, Ipswich Hospital, everyday amenities and easy access into the town centre, while miles of woodland walks can be enjoyed directly from the rear garden. A truly outstanding family home in one of East Ipswich's most sought-after locations.
