Price per square metre in S26
The last five years of sales put S26 at roughly £2,570 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.

In cash terms the typical S26 home went from £47,500 in 1995 to £205,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 99%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2024. The market now sits about 18% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the S26 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 (+29.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−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) | −13.7% | −15.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.0% | −3.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.4% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 46% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £325,000 against £120,000 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
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 last five years, month by month
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 255 S26 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 539 sales a year before the financial crisis and 343 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.
What homes rent for around S26
For renting purposes S26 sits in Rotherham. The ONS average private rent there is £679 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £483 a month here against £1,065 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Rotherham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£679 a month is £8,148 a year, which against the £205,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.0%. 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.

What another bedroom costs in S
What homes of each size actually sold for across the S 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 | — | £235,000 | £330,000 (+40%) | £495,000 (+50%) | £750,000 (+52%) |
| Semi-detached | £160,000 | £175,000 (+9%) | £220,000 (+26%) | £321,000 (+46%) | £550,000 (+71%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
