Rapier Street, Ipswich, UK

Over the past couple of years, local and national government have dedicated themselves in providing the necessary infrastructure and to work as a partner on a number of regeneration and development projects. This regeneration has also done much to improve the attractiveness of the town and its amenities.

Ipswich is a great place to live: provision for sport and the arts is first-rate while recent central and peripheral shopping developments have attracted a growing number of visitors.

The town has also has more than 800 acres of parkland - urban amenities that are complemented by the countryside, the heritage coast, heath land, estuaries and rivers are all within easy reach.

The regeneration of Ipswich is also taking place on the waterfront with new homes, business centres and leisure facilities.

Rapier Street
The Rapier Street development is very much part of this proposed re-generation programme and is perfectly located to take advantage of the waterfront boom that is taking place in Ipswich.

It is on the West side of the docks, which will in the long run see the best capital growth. Prices are also much cheaper at present on the West side, though this is already beginning to change.

This development offers contemporary style and quality among Ipswich’s growing developments. It is a modern environment, with leading edge architecture and offers a choice of apartments, all benefiting from both the liveliness of Ipswich and the tranquillity of the Waterfront. Living in Rapier Street means modern Ipswich is on your door step.

Within a mile residents can choose from a vibrant mix of leisure, sports and social facilities and a host of restaurants, clubs, cinemas, cafe’s pubs and bars, from timber framed inns to lively themed bars.

A Housing Survey undertaken on behalf of Ipswich Borough Council in 2000 predicted that the population of Ipswich will increase by approximately 7,000 between now and 2016 (this excludes students at the new university since proposed).
