In cash terms the typical IP14 3 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £305,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 134%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 28% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the IP14 3 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2021 (+36.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2005 (−10.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −4.7% | −6.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.7% | −6.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.9% | −0.9% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
How many homes change hands in IP14 3
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 21 sales completed in IP14 3. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 64 sales a year recently, against 80 a year before 2008. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What kind of market IP14 3 is
This is a thin market: 21 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Within IP14, this sector trades 9% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
Rents around IP14 3
IP14 3 falls under Mid Suffolk, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £994 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £712 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,570 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Mid Suffolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £305,000 median purchase price, a rent of £994 a month (£11,928 a year) works out at a 3.9% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

Moving up a bedroom in IP: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the IP area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
