***REDUCED AS VENDORS FOUND***
A gem of a four bedroom detached period home in the heart of the highly desirable Rosehill with absolutely incredible woodland garden, parking and generous accommodation.
The home has been loved for many years and has been sympathetically updated, to keep the original Edwardian charm, but keep up to date with the addition of EV Charger in 2022 and Solar Panels in 2014, as well as the installation of a modern air source heat pump in 2021, a huge appeal to those eco conscious buyers who want a modern, efficient home.
As an example, the vendors have advised the following covers all energy usage for the house and charging the EV car.
March 2025 - £376 (£35 overnight EV charging)
July 2025 - £96 (£10 overnight EV charging)
They have also received payments over the last year totalling £384 for the energy given back to the grid from the solar panels.
The home presents beautifully from the front, with dual Edwardian bay windows, mirrored chimney stacks and period charm, alongside established and sprawling plants and flowers.
Entering through the porch, the hallway opens up in front of you, with stairs tucked away to the side, allowing a truly impressive space to greet you, with access to the living rooms. To the left, a bay window fronted room, ideal for an additional sitting room, office, dining room or children’s playroom. To the right, the generous lounge with fireplace, opening to the music space, currently housing the piano, ideal for evenings entertaining guests and family games nights. The rear of the room is light and airy, with patio doors opening into the garden and down onto the breakfast patio, where you can enjoy the birdsong in your own woodland in the morning over a cup of coffee and newspaper.
The generous country kitchen/diner is to the rear and offers ample usable space, as well as access to the rear utility/boot room, especially handy for those with muddy boots or dogs, before entering into the home.
Upstairs, the galleried landing provides access to the bedrooms, with impressive sized master with exposed floorboards, generous remaining bedrooms and the family bathroom. There is a fifth bedroom, which is currently used as a storage room, which could be used as a small single, or converted to serve as an en-suite for either of the two front facing bedrooms.
Externally, you'll fall in love with the sprawling garden, reminiscent of The Secret Garden, with an absolutely incredible variety of trees, shrubs, plants, pond and nature areas - ideal for camping out with the kids in the summer and enjoying having a wonderful time learning about the woodland, animals, fruits and plants.
In the popular Rosehill area, right opposite the entrance to Holywells Park, the home is within walking distance of Rosehill Primary School, Ipswich town centre, a variety of bus routes or the train station of Derby Road. Ipswich hospital is 7 minutes' drive and there is a huge variety of facilities and amenities within easy reach.
