How this area has changed

Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Postcode sector IP3 8 £263,750 £269,000 -2% since £202,000 +31% since £152,500 +73% since £137,995 +91% since
Ipswich £260,500 £230,900 +13% since £187,000 +39% since £141,000 +85% since £138,000 +89% 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.
