St. Peters Street, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP1

An imposing and historic residence situated in a central location offering 2,500 sq ft of accommodation along with the benefit of parking.

St Peters Street, with its wide range of boutique independent traders and restaurants, is arguably the premium street within the centre of the county town and provides the link to the popular waterfront.

Presenting red brick elevations with ornate leaded windows, beneath a plain tiled roof, St Peters Hall dates from 1911 and was originally constructed to serve as the hall for St Peters Church, with the Bishop of Norwich officially opening the building.

Renovated by the architect owner some 12 years ago, the property is arranged as a comfortable residence affording accommodation arranged over two storeys and extending to over 2,500 sq ft. The property offers great volume with dramatic ceiling height, notably the central stairwell hall and galleried landing with feature window. In contrast to the external appearance, the interior is modern in styling with open plan kitchen/dining/living space, which benefitting from being double aspect, is flooded with natural light and offers doors to the courtyard garden. There is a cosy snug/study, along with the utility room completing the ground floor accommodation.

The dramatic staircase rises to a galleried landing accessing four double bedrooms, all benefiting from air conditioning, along with three bathrooms, two of which are en-suite.

Positioned to the rear of the property is an attractive and well planted sun trap courtyard garden, whilst accessed via Grey Friars Road, through security gates, there are two freehold parking spaces.

The building has a fascinating history which has been documented, a copy of which is available from the agent upon request.
