How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Firmin Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector IP1 2 | £85,000 | Not enough sales | £97,475 -13% since | £57,500 +48% since | £116,436 -27% since |
| Ipswich | £125,000 | £128,500 -3% since | £115,000 +9% since | £90,000 +39% since | £130,000 -4% since |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in IP1 2, over the last five years (420 sales):
- What sells: 45% terraced, 38% flats, 8% other, 7% semi-detached, 2% detached.
- 40% sold leasehold.
- 72 sales in the last twelve months, against 93 in the same twelve months five years ago.
