What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Old Ipswich Road, Eye is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 21 | 55.3% | £262,000 | £147,500 – £605,000 |
| Semi-detached | 11 | 28.9% | £182,500 | £122,000 – £262,000 |
| Terraced | 6 | 15.8% | £87,000 | £33,000 – £340,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Old Ipswich Road, Eye
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 38 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 38 | 100.0% | £200,000 |
| New build | 5 | 13.2% | £148,000 |
| Existing home | 33 | 86.8% | £225,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -34.2%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09
How Old Ipswich Road, Eye compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Old Ipswich Road, Eye sits above that national figure — +27.0%.
Within Eye the street ranks 146 of 224 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £209,950 (-4.7%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £33,000 to £605,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
