Property Details

Description

This must be one of Ipswich’s most prominent landmark buildings. Situated adjacent to the Sailmaker shopping complex, Crown Pools leisure facility and municipal bus service hub on the main arterial route through the town. The building is steeped in modern-day history and has recently been the subject of a multi-million-pound refurbishment / redevelopment project. The Lot comprises the freehold interest in the entire building, made up of 14 apartments sold on 150-year leases from 2017, together with the tenanted retail/office on the ground floor. Some of the basement has been allocated for bike storage although much of it is un-utilised. When the retail space becomes vacant, we consider there will be an opportunity of further residential development (STP), while still retaining a commercial frontage.
