"What a wonderful prize for just three people to share in the beautiful town of Ipswich. I hope they enjoy every minute of their life changing wins."
Each ticket was worth £250,000, making this the sixth postcode to win £1 million during the lottery’s daily prize draws from October 24 to 31.
The Postcode Lottery costs £12.50 a month to play, with participants automatically entered into all draws using their chosen postcode.
Players have raised more than £1.8 billion for thousands of charities and local good causes.
This prize was promoted on behalf of the Postcode Culture Trust, whose mission is to inspire learning, understanding and appreciation of science, music, arts and culture.
Beneficiaries of the trust include the Edinburgh International Book Festival, the Science Museum Group, and Youth Music.
The Ipswich Millionaire Street win means local charities have also benefitted from cash boosts thanks to funds raised by Postcode Lottery players.
