Today's IP15 prices, from the sold record
The 2026 median for IP15 is £546,500, taken from 26 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £699,400, well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.
IP15 prices by floor area
The last five years of sales put IP15 at roughly £5,550 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.
England and Wales as a whole trade at a £285,000 median, leaving IP15 92% above the national figure.

In cash terms the typical IP15 home went from £67,800 in 1995 to £546,500 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 271%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 15% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the IP15 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 2004 (+34.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−15.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −1.5% | −3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.7% | −0.2% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +3.4% | −1.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 42% of the typed total. In 2024, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £717,400 against £322,500 for a flat, 2.2 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
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.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
IP15 recorded 43 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 104 sales a year before the financial crisis and 47 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
How IP15 trades
Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes IP15 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. IP15 is currently the dearest district of its postcode area by median price.
What homes rent for around IP15
For renting purposes IP15 sits in East Suffolk. The ONS average private rent there is £834 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £597 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,332, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, East Suffolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £546,500 median purchase price, a rent of £834 a month (£10,008 a year) works out at a 1.8% 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.

The IP15 sales calendar
Take the 278 IP15 sales dated 2021 to 2025 and sort them by month: September completions lead with 11.9% of the total, May trails with 4.3%. That is a marked seasonal rhythm. A sale completes weeks after it is agreed, so the busy month reflects deals struck earlier in the year; a seller who wants competition should be on the market ahead of it.

| February | 22 | 7.9% |

The price of an extra bedroom in IP
What homes of each size actually sold for across the IP area, from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £270,000 | £303,250 (+12%) | £355,000 (+17%) | £442,550 (+25%) | £540,000 (+22%) |
| Semi-detached | £210,000 | £238,000 (+13%) | £268,500 (+13%) | £320,000 (+19%) | £400,000 (+25%) |
| Terraced | £161,000 | £205,000 (+27%) | £230,000 (+12%) | £280,000 (+22%) | £330,000 (+18%) |
| Flat | £125,000 | £157,000 (+26%) | £211,000 (+34%) | £290,000 (+37%) | £402,500 (+39%) |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
