What a home in S6 1 sells for
In the S6 1 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £174,500, from 76 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £210,300, sitting well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.
What a square metre costs in S6 1
Measured by floor area, the last five years of S6 1 sales average about £2,330 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, S6 1 runs 39% below it.

| 1995 | £36,000 | £78,258 | 108 |
In cash terms the typical S6 1 home went from £36,000 in 1995 to £174,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 123%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2008, and today's median remains roughly 22% under it: a 2008 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the S6 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 2001 (+35.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−10.2%). 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) | −6.9% | −9.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.0% | −2.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.8% | −1.0% |
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
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
S6 1 recorded 76 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 331 sales a year before the financial crisis and 150 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 S6 1
For renting purposes S6 1 sits in Sheffield. The ONS average private rent there is £922 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £683 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,327 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Sheffield
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £174,500 median sold price, £922 a month is £11,064 a year, a gross yield of 6.3%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

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.
| 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%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
