Tenure: Freehold

THE PROPERTY "Elton Grange" is a really most impressive, individual, architect designed, executive style modern DETACHED FAMILY RESIDENCE. This splendid property was built in 1993 to a very high specification and is presented in very good order throughout. Occupying a most attractive secluded position on the western outskirts of Ipswich the property is approached by way of a long sweeping, floodlit, tarmacadam driveway flanked by landscaped grounds which extend in total to a little in excess of 1 ACRE.

Elton Park is an unmade, horseshoe shaped private road located off Hadleigh Road, opposite Chantry Park only 5 minutes drive from the town centre.

The house provides spacious, well planned, family accommodation and is very well appointed with the benefit of hardwood double glazed leaded light windows and doors throughout and well equipped kitchen and bathroom fittings. In addition, all radiators are fitted with thermostatic valves, a burglar alarm is fitted and all rooms have coved ceilings. The facility exists for a self contained "Granny Flat" within the existing accommodation.

The landscaped gardens are a feature of the property with a number of mature trees and the property abuts the River Gipping with its own jetty.

"Elton Grange" provides a unique opportunity to purchase an exceptional and most distinctive modern property displaying much character in its own secluded grounds on the outskirts of the town but convenient for all major routes. We strongly recommend and early appointment to view.  

THE SITUATION The property is situated approximately 1 mile to the West of Ipswich the county town of Suffolk which stands at the head of the River Orwell, with easy access to the region's main road network (A12 and A14) which link with the East Coast Ports, the Midlands and London's M25 motorway. The towns of Colchester, Bury St Edmunds and Felixstowe are also easily accessible.

The nearest airport for national and international flights is Stansted 50 miles to the West whilst the port of Harwich approximately 3/4 hour drive, provides daily services to Europe and Scandinavia.

Ipswich town is the hub of a thriving region offering all the amenities one would expect from one of Suffolk's largest conurbations. Two modern shopping malls lie in the heart of the town - the Buttermarket shopping centre and Sailmakers and most of the major high street retailers can be found centrally - Marks & Spencer, Debenhams, Boots, WH Smith and Sainsburys.

Culturally there is much to admire - a choice of 2 theatres and a multiplex cinema and there is also a wide range of wine bars and restaurants. Leisure facilities are plentiful and diverse - there are four sports centres, the Crown Pools swimming complex and a ski centre which allows for all-weather practice. Portman Road the home of Ipswich Town Football Club and Hintlesham Gol;f Club are only a short distance away. Other top quality golf courses in the area include Woodbridge, Purdis Heath and Felixstowe.

There is a choice of schooling in the area with junior schools at either Ranelagh Road in Ipswich or Sproughton and secondary education at Chantry or Claydon. Independent schools in the area include co-educational Ipswich School and St Joseph's College and the Ipswich High School for Girls which cater for children from the age of 5 to 18.

The Suffolk Heritage coastline with its internationally renowned Minsmere Bird Reserve and Snape Maltings is only 40 minutes away, whilst much closer is "Constable Country" with the villages of Flatford and Dedham, made famous by the artist John Constable.
