Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

In short: the typical home in S43 2 (Chesterfield) sold for £165,500 in 2026, the median of 38 registered sales, up 18% on five years earlier. The mean was £178,600, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,250 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 3,928 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.

S43 2 is one sector of S43 (Chesterfield): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

What a home in S43 2 sells for

The 2026 median for S43 2 is £165,500, taken from 38 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £178,600, modestly above it, the usual shape of a market with an expensive tail.

What a square metre costs in S43 2

The last five years of sales put S43 2 at roughly £2,250 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.

Set against the £285,000 England and Wales median, S43 2 sits 42% below the national market.

In cash terms the typical S43 2 home went from £34,000 in 1995 to £165,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 124%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 13% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+44.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−20.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

What S43 2 has returned, per year

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.

Sales activity in S43 2

S43 2 recorded 38 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 173 sales a year before the financial crisis and 89 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.

The rental side of S43 2

S43 2 falls under Chesterfield, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £738 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £527 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,141 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

£738 a month is £8,856 a year, which against the £165,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.4%. 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.

The shape of the S43 2 market

This is a thin market: 38 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. Against the S43 district median, S43 2 sits 11% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

Will S43 2 prices rise from here?

That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 18% over five years in cash but down 7% after inflation.
