In cash terms the typical DE73 8 home went from £57,800 in 1995 to £317,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 153%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2023. The market now sits about 29% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DE73 8 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 2020 (+34.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−21.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What DE73 8 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.4% | 0.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.5% | −3.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.4% | −1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
Sales activity in DE73 8
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 42 DE73 8 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 127 sales a year before the financial crisis and 99 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What kind of market DE73 8 is
Only 42 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DE73 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the DE73 district median, DE73 8 sits 10% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
The rental side of DE73 8
DE73 8 falls under South Derbyshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £874 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £605 a month here against £1,428 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, South Derbyshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£874 a month is £10,488 a year, which against the £317,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.3%. 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 price of an extra bedroom in DE
What homes of each size actually sold for across the DE area, 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.
