Barlborough market report S43 1, Chesterfield
The standing S43 1 (Barlborough) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Everything below comes from 4,356 sales recorded by HM Land Registry in S43 1 (Chesterfield) since 1995, real completion prices from real purchases, alongside the ONS's current rent figures. No valuations, no estimates, no asking prices.
Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: 44 registered 2026 sales put the S43 1 (Chesterfield) median at £195,000, up 15% on five years earlier, with a mean of £212,400, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,370 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 4,356 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
A postcode sector like S43 1 is a single group of streets within S43 (Chesterfield), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

In cash terms the typical S43 1 home went from £36,000 in 1995 to £195,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 149%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 9% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the S43 1 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 (+33.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−9.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +7.7% | +5.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −2.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.6% | +2.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
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.
The register shows 44 S43 1 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 176 sales a year before the financial crisis and 117 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 tenants pay around S43 1
S43 1 falls under Chesterfield, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £738 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £527 a month here against £1,141 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Chesterfield
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £195,000 median purchase price, a rent of £738 a month (£8,856 a year) works out at a 4.5% 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.
What kind of market S43 1 is
This is a thin market: 44 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. 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 another bedroom costs in S
What homes of each size actually sold for across the S area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
