| 1996 | £39,000 | £82,249 | 208 |
| 1995 | £39,000 | £84,780 | 177 |
In cash terms the typical DE1 home went from £39,000 in 1995 to £169,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 99%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2005; the current median sits about 27% below that. Someone who bought at the 2005 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the DE1 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+30.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−11.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 53% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £296,200 against £125,000 for a flat, 2.4 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.4% | 0.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.2% | −4.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −1.2% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 121 DE1 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 314 sales a year before the financial crisis and 176 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around DE1
DE1 falls under Derby, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £852 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £602 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,291 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Derby
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £169,000 median sold price, £852 a month is £10,224 a year, a gross yield of 6.0%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.
What kind of market DE1 is
This is a thin market: 121 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. DE1 is currently the cheapest district of its postcode area by median price, which cuts both ways: the lowest entry price, and the least priced-in expectation.
DE1 (West End): the questions that come up
Is DE1 (West End) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in DE1 (West End)?
Are property prices falling in DE1 (West End)?
Where do DE1 prices go next?
No honest page predicts prices, so this one sticks to the record: the median is roughly flat over five years in cash but down 20% after inflation. Anyone weighing a purchase should read the volume chart with the price chart, remembering that these are completed sales, registered weeks after the deals were actually struck.
What you could buy in DE1 now
Everything above is what homes in DE1 sold for. Turning to what is actually available: 79 homes on the market right now, from 9 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 23% below the DE1 median sold price.
28% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
"Under comparable sales" means the asking price sits below what similar homes nearby actually fetched. Treat it as the start of a conversation, never a valuation, and always view the home.

Bedroom by bedroom: DE prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the DE area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £255,000 | £348,918 (+37%) | £540,000 (+55%) | £710,000 (+31%) |
| Semi-detached | £177,000 | £205,000 (+16%) | £247,000 (+20%) | £318,950 (+29%) | £452,500 (+42%) |
| Terraced | £155,000 | £160,000 (+3%) | £193,000 (+21%) | £260,000 (+35%) | £372,750 (+43%) |
| Flat | £110,000 | £145,000 (+32%) | £235,000 (+62%) | — | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
