S26 5 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside S26 (Sheffield). 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.

In cash terms the typical S26 5 home went from £43,000 in 1995 to £215,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 130%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2025, and today's median remains roughly 22% under it: a 2025 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the S26 5 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 2005 (+55.7% on the year before); the weakest, 1997 (−39.2%). 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) | −19.6% | −21.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.2% |
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.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 15 S26 5 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 59 sales a year over the last five years against 51 before the financial crisis. 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.
The shape of the S26 5 market
Only 15 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes S26 5 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.
What homes rent for around S26 5
For renting purposes S26 5 sits in Rotherham. The ONS average private rent there is £679 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £483 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,065, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Rotherham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £215,000 median purchase price, a rent of £679 a month (£8,148 a year) works out at a 3.8% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: S prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the S area. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £235,000 | £330,000 (+40%) | £495,000 (+50%) | £750,000 (+52%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
The risers and the fallers
