In short: the 2026 median for DN4 0 (Doncaster) is £122,500, from 34 registered sales, up 35% on five years earlier; the mean is £138,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £1,320 per square metre over the last five years.

DN4 0 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside DN4 (Doncaster). 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 | £29,200 | £63,476 | 195 |
In cash terms the typical DN4 0 home went from £29,200 in 1995 to £122,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 93%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 18% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the DN4 0 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 2004 (+48.3% on the year before); the weakest, 1997 (−8.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +11.2% | +8.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.1% | +1.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.0% | +1.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
Sales activity in DN4 0
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.
DN4 0 recorded 34 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 310 sales a year before the financial crisis and 95 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.
Rents around DN4 0
DN4 0 falls under Doncaster, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £689 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £489 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,070 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Doncaster
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £122,500 median purchase price, a rent of £689 a month (£8,268 a year) works out at a 6.7% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
The shape of the DN4 0 market
This is a thin market: 34 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. 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. Within DN4, this sector trades 34% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

The price of an extra bedroom in DN
What homes of each size actually sold for across the DN area, from the Land Registry record. 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 | — | £210,000 | £282,972 (+35%) | £405,000 (+43%) | £520,000 (+28%) |
| Semi-detached | £145,000 | £158,000 (+9%) | £178,000 (+13%) | £245,000 (+38%) | £312,500 (+28%) |
| Terraced | £117,000 | £110,000 (-6%) | £116,000 (+5%) | £165,000 (+42%) | £265,000 (+61%) |
| Flat | £90,000 | £105,500 (+17%) | £145,000 (+37%) | — | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
