Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on IP6: steady sales, so price from the evidence
250 sales since October 2025 make IP6 a steady market, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.
If you are selling, with detached homes at £430,000 and flats at £133,000, the £174,400 to £626,500 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.
Sell houseIf you are buying, on price, IP6 is close to the UK average, so use the sold range on this page as your yardstick.
Before an offer goes in on any IP6 home, look at long-term flood risk, council tax (Band D is £2,335 a year) and what has been built or proposed nearby, and leave the title to your conveyancer.
For what the averages cannot tell you, the free IP6 OfferCheck brings flood, crime, planning and council tax together.

In plain English
What the East Suffolk (IP6) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £430,000 against £133,000 for flats: about 3.2 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £174,400 and £626,500, so the median says little about any one home.
- Nearly all of these sales (92%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
- This is an active district: about 24 recorded sales a month.

These are East Suffolk's charges for 2026-27, the authority IP6 falls in, not an estimate for any individual home. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and we never guess it; look up a band on GOV.UK and read your row. Bands reflect what a home was worth on 1 April 1991, not today.

Median across 12 sampled postcodes; 1 is the most deprived 10% of England, 10 the least.
Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled IP6 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 6 to decile 9, with a median of decile 8 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
IP6 0GH, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 8 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so IP6 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in IP6: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

Cost to run
Two sources, one table
What it costs to run a home in IP6, band by band
East Suffolk's council tax for 2026-27 set against the IP6 median sold price of £287,500 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearEast Suffolk | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £287,500 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,557 | £130 | 0.54% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,816 | £151 | 0.63% |

| H | over £320,000 | £4,670 | £389 | 1.62% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the IP6 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.
