What buyers actually paid in S6
The S6 median stands at £224,000 for 2026, built from 320 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £241,900, modestly above it, the usual shape of a market with an expensive tail.
S6 prices by floor area
The last five years of sales put S6 at roughly £2,750 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.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, S6 runs 21% below it.

In cash terms the typical S6 home went from £39,800 in 1995 to £224,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 159%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 11% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the S6 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 (+27.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−5.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 48% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £423,400 against £150,000 for a flat, 2.8 times the price.

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
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 monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 712 sales completed in S6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,337 sales a year before the financial crisis and 755 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
For renting purposes S6 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 £224,000 median sold price, £922 a month is £11,064 a year, a gross yield of 4.9%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in S: the cost
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.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
