About this home

An imposing Victorian property with extensive grounds and offering considerable potential for further development

Description

Burgess House is a substantial detached Victorian property occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.65 acres, set within established grounds on Felixstowe Road, Ipswich.

The property has historically been used for charitable and community purposes, including day respite care, and offers an interesting opportunity for a variety of potential purchasers. The combination of the existing building, extensive grounds and ancillary outbuildings provides scope for a range of alternative uses, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.

The grounds include mature trees and established landscaping, together with areas of parking and turning space. Additional buildings include garages, sheds and a garden room, providing useful ancillary accommodation and storage.

Burgess House is an unusual opportunity to acquire a substantial property with a sizeable plot within the Ipswich area. It may appeal to developers, investors, charitable organisations, community groups or purchasers seeking a property with potential for conversion, redevelopment or continued commercial or community use.

Location

The property is situated on the eastern side of Ipswich, a well-established and popular part of the town with a mixture of period and modern housing, local amenities and convenient road connections. Felixstowe Road provides a direct route towards the town centre and the A12, while the A14 is readily accessible for travel towards Felixstowe, Colchester, Bury St Edmunds and the wider East Anglia region.

The county town of Ipswich offers a broad range of shopping, leisure, cultural and educational facilities. The town centre includes independent retailers, national stores, restaurants, cafés, theatres and galleries, while the waterfront provides a popular setting for restaurants, bars, offices and leisure activities. Ipswich railway station offers regular services to London Liverpool Street and other regional destinations.

The surrounding area combines established residential neighbourhoods with open countryside and recreational spaces. Local parks, sports facilities and walking routes are available within the wider Ipswich area, and the Suffolk coast, including Felixstowe, is within convenient travelling distance. The area may therefore appeal to owner-occupiers, investors, community organisations and purchasers seeking access to both town facilities and the wider Suffolk countryside.
