IP24 sold prices: where the market stands
In the IP24 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £230,000, from 145 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £253,200, sitting somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.
IP24 prices by floor area
A square metre of IP24 home has cost about £2,790 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, IP24 runs 19% below it.

In cash terms the typical IP24 home went from £42,500 in 1995 to £230,000 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. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 20% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the IP24 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 2002 (+25.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−7.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 39% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £315,000 against £125,000 for a flat, 2.5 times the price.

Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
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
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 261 sales completed in IP24. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 714 sales a year before the financial crisis and 324 a year over the last five. 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.
The shape of the IP24 market
Among the 33 measurable districts of its area, IP24 ranks 32 by median price: towards the affordable end.
Rents around IP24
IP24 falls under Breckland, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £920 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £659 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,507 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Breckland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£920 a month is £11,040 a year, which against the £230,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.8%. 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.

Prediction is not this page's business. Its business is the record, which says: the median is up 5% over five years in cash but down 17% after inflation. Read the volume chart with the price chart before acting on either, remembering that registrations trail the deals themselves by weeks.
What is for sale in IP24 right now
Everything above is what homes in IP24 sold for. This is what you could actually buy today: 18 homes currently on the market from 3 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 15% above the IP24 median sold price.
At the pace of the last twelve months' registered sales (261 in IP24), the 18 homes listed here amount to about 4 weeks of supply. Not every agent publishes to HomesIndex, so the true figure is higher. Supply that short favours the seller; a sensibly priced home here does not sit for long.
6% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
"Under comparable sales" means the asking price sits below what similar homes nearby actually fetched. Treat it as the start of a conversation, never a valuation, and always view the home.

September is when IP24 changes hands most (10.6% of the 1,920 sales dated 2021 to 2025); February is the quiet end at 6.8%. With so little between the busiest and quietest months, IP24 sells year round; the calendar is a weaker lever than price.

What another bedroom costs 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%) |
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.
