In cash terms the typical S11 8 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £295,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 171%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 17% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the S11 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 2004 (+30.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−13.7%). 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) | −4.8% | −7.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.8% |
| 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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
S11 8 recorded 63 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 302 sales a year before the financial crisis and 123 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
Reading the S11 8 market
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. Within S11, this sector trades 16% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What tenants pay around S11 8
For renting purposes S11 8 sits in Sheffield. The ONS average private rent there is £922 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £683 a month here against £1,327 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Sheffield
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£922 a month is £11,064 a year, which against the £295,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.8%. 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.

25% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Moving up a bedroom in S: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the S area. 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.
