An absolutely stunning historic Victorian home in the heart of Ipswich offering impressive accommodation over 2,300sqf and bursting with original charm and features.
This beautiful home originally formed part of the Victorian Ipswich Maternity Home, opened by Princess Alexandra and retains a wealth of history and character throughout.
Wingfield Court is part of a gated community with communal ground, garden and tranquil outside space for residents to enjoy.
Enter the home into the lobby and find the dual aspect living room to the left, an ideal space for entertaining or cosying up in the winter in front of the original cast iron fireplace.
The stunning kitchen diner opens up to the rear into two courtyard gardens, absolutely perfect for enjoying a glass of wine in the summer months. The kitchen is modern, with spotlights and is of a generous size, easily allowing space for a dining area to really make this a family room to enjoy.
The second reception room would make an ideal dining room, home office or even a ground floor guest bedroom, with a storage cupboard and easy access to the downstairs WC.
The first floor houses the primary bedroom, with its own 4 piece en-suite bathroom and walk in dressing room. To this floor you'll also find bedroom 5, which would make a perfect nursery.
The top floor is made of the remaining 3 bedrooms, as well as the family bathroom.
The home retains so much character, from the high ceilings, exposed brickwork throughout, the original fireplaces found throughout the home and the traditional Suffolk Red Brick finish, but has been well cared for and tastefully updated over the years, with modern finish, spotlights, bathroom suite and country style kitchen.
Externally is a private driveway for 2-3 cars and the communal grounds. Being part of the managed community, there is an annual charge of circa £800p/a for the maintenance of the grounds, gates and greenery etc. though this is expected to eventually become self-managed by residents in the future.
The home is a period construction and has Grade 2 listed curtilage. Curtilage listed buildings are not listed in their own right by Historic England, but because of their age and physical association with the listed building are considered, as an established principle set out in law, to benefit from the same set of protections that apply to a listed building.
