Moorends market report DN8 5, Doncaster

The standing DN8 5 (Moorends) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 3,979 sales registered with HM Land Registry in DN8 5 (Doncaster) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.

In short: the typical home in DN8 5 (Doncaster) sold for £164,200 in 2026, the median of 36 registered sales, up 22% on five years earlier. The mean was £165,600, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £1,890 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 3,979 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.

A postcode sector like DN8 5 is a single group of streets within DN8 (Doncaster), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

What DN8 5 homes really sell for

In the DN8 5 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £164,200, from 36 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £165,600, sitting almost on top of it, so sales bunch tightly around the typical price.

What a square metre costs in DN8 5

Averaged across five years of sales, floor space in DN8 5 costs about £1,890 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.

Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, DN8 5 runs 42% below it.

In cash terms the typical DN8 5 home went from £32,000 in 1995 to £164,200 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 136%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 19% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+42.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.5%). 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

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 register shows 36 DN8 5 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 185 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 DN8 5 is

This is a thin market: 36 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. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

What tenants pay around DN8 5

For renting purposes DN8 5 sits in Doncaster. The ONS average private rent there is £689 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £489 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,070, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Against the £164,200 median purchase price, a rent of £689 a month (£8,268 a year) works out at a 5.0% 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.
