Description
Set along the gentle curve of Lower Brook Street, this elegant five-bedroom period house unfolds across three thoughtfully arranged floors, combining generous proportions with carefully considered contemporary interiors. The house balances its historic character with a calm, modern aesthetic, creating a home that feels both refined and highly liveable.
The white-rendered façade sits comfortably within a charming streetscape of historic Ipswich buildings, its traditional sash windows offering a subtle nod to the Georgian and Victorian heritage of the area.
Inside, the house opens into a bright and welcoming entrance hall finished with pale timber flooring and soft neutral tones that establish a sense of light and space from the outset.
At the rear of the ground floor, the kitchen and dining room form the social heart of the home. Generous in scale, the space is centred around a substantial island finished in a muted blue tone with stone work surfaces above. Contemporary cabinetry and integrated appliances line the walls, while a dining area positioned beside the window creates a relaxed setting for everyday meals and entertaining.
The principal sitting room is a beautifully composed space filled with natural light from shuttered sash windows. Soft textures and a restrained palette enhance the calm atmosphere that runs throughout the house.
Across the upper floors are five well-proportioned bedrooms, offering flexible accommodation for family life, guests or home working. The principal bedroom enjoys generous proportions and an en-suite shower room, while additional bedrooms are served by well-appointed bathrooms arranged across the house.
The bathroom has been finished with careful attention to materials, including tiling, contemporary fittings and a striking freestanding roll-top bath that introduces a quiet sense of luxury.
One of the home’s most memorable spaces lies on the upper level, where a dramatic vaulted room reveals a series of exposed historic timber beams spanning the full width of the roofline. This floor has been thoughtfully arranged to create a generous double bedroom with a seating area, while still offering flexibility for a home office, studio or dressing space depending on lifestyle needs.
