South West Ipswich market report IP2 0, Ipswich
The standing IP2 0 (South West Ipswich) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. This page is built from the public record and nothing else: 3,742 completed sales registered with HM Land Registry in IP2 0 (Ipswich) since 1995, plus current ONS rental figures. There are no valuations, estimates or asking prices in it.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 43 registered 2026 sales put the IP2 0 (Ipswich) median at £225,000, up 13% on five years earlier, with a mean of £243,800, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,800 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 3,742 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
IP2 0 is one sector of IP2 (Ipswich): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

IP2 0 sold prices: where the market stands
43 sales were registered in IP2 0 in 2026, and the middle one of them, the median, went for £225,000. The mean works out at £243,800, modestly above it, the usual shape of a market with an expensive tail.
House prices per square metre in IP2 0
The last five years of sales put IP2 0 at roughly £2,800 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.
For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so IP2 0 trades 21% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical IP2 0 home went from £41,500 in 1995 to £225,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 149%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 13% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the IP2 0 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 2016 (+26.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What IP2 0 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.3% | −0.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 43 sales completed in IP2 0. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 132 sales a year before the financial crisis and 83 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.
What homes rent for around IP2 0
IP2 0 falls under Ipswich, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £989 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £739 a month here against £1,465 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Ipswich
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£989 a month is £11,868 a year, which against the £225,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.3%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
What kind of market IP2 0 is
Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes IP2 0 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Will IP2 0 prices rise from here?

The price of an extra bedroom in IP
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the IP area. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £297,500 | £400,000 (+34%) | £587,000 (+47%) | £800,000 (+36%) |

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.
