Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
In short: the 2026 median for DN4 6 (Doncaster) is £195,000, from 60 registered sales, up 7% on five years earlier; the mean is £240,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,330 per square metre over the last five years.

The going rate for a home in DN4 6

DN4 6 prices by floor area
Averaged across five years of sales, floor space in DN4 6 costs about £2,330 per square metre. Each sale's Energy Performance Certificate supplies the floor area, and pricing by the metre is what lets flats and houses share one scale.

| 1996 | £57,000 | £120,210 | 178 |
| 1995 | £55,500 | £120,648 | 127 |
In cash terms the typical DN4 6 home went from £55,500 in 1995 to £195,000 in 2026, roughly 3.5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 62%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 22% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DN4 6 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 2002 (+29.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2010 (−16.7%). 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) | −9.1% | −11.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.3% | −3.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.6% | −0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
How many homes change hands in DN4 6
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 60 sales completed in DN4 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 206 sales a year before the financial crisis and 131 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.
Rents around DN4 6
DN4 6 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.
£689 a month is £8,268 a year, which against the £195,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.2%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: DN prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the DN area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| 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%) |

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.
