In cash terms the typical IP27 0 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £218,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 124%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 14% 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 IP27 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 2002 (+26.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.0%). 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 year (since 2025) | −2.8% | −5.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.7% | −2.0% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +2.8% | −1.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 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.
How many homes change hands in IP27 0
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
IP27 0 recorded 74 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 353 sales a year before the financial crisis and 159 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.
The rental side of IP27 0
The local authority for IP27 0 is West Suffolk, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,177 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £813 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,848 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, West Suffolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £218,800 median sold price, £1,177 a month is £14,124 a year, a gross yield of 6.5%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

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. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

| Detached | £270,000 | £303,250 (+12%) | £355,000 (+17%) | £442,550 (+25%) | £540,000 (+22%) |
