rafton Way is a new development of 173 homes in the centre of Ipswich. The commercial units are sited to the eastern boundary, closest to the redeveloped Ipswich Waterfront. Grafton Way meets Bridge Street and Star Lane on the double roundabouts where Ipswich’s main one way system begins and ends. The site benefits from being a five minute walk from the main business district, the football stadium, the town centre, and the waterfront. Ipswich Borough Council plans to redevelop the former R&W Paul silo that sits opposite the commercial units of Grafton Way, to include public uses with leisure facilities that will offer views across the Waterfront and an external climbing wall. Full plans are still being formed. Cardinal Park is situated opposite the Grafton Way development and offers a range of leisure and entertainment options, including a Cineworld cinema, a gym, restaurants, cafes, and other retail outlets. The complex has large open-plan voids that may be filled with additional leisure operators and is home to well-known brands such as Subway and McDonald's. Ipswich Town Football Club has their stadium approx. A five minute walk from the site. The commercial units are of modern, steel portal frame construction and will include features such as sloped roofs, glazed frontages, curved elevations, living roof, and parking for approximately 16 cars. The properties will be finished to shell specification with services installed and have the potential for a mezzanine floor to be built across part of the floor plate.
