DE14 2 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside DE14 (Burton-On-Trent). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

| 1995 | £29,000 | £63,042 | 219 |
In cash terms the typical DE14 2 home went from £29,000 in 1995 to £177,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 181%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 11% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DE14 2 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 (+39.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−16.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +13.5% | +10.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.4% | −0.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 57 sales completed in DE14 2. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 283 sales a year before the financial crisis and 174 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around DE14 2
DE14 2 falls under East Staffordshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £838 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £600 a month here against £1,374 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, East Staffordshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£838 a month is £10,056 a year, which against the £177,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.7%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
The shape of the DE14 2 market
Only 57 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DE14 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Bedroom by bedroom: DE prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the DE area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
