Town Centre market report S60 4, Rotherham

The standing S60 4 (Town Centre) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 2,812 registered sales in S60 4 (Rotherham) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

In short: a typical S60 4 (Rotherham) home changed hands for £210,000 in 2026 (median of 35 registered sales, up 5% on five years earlier), with the mean at £233,400, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,500 per square metre over the last five years. Source: 2,812 completed sales on the HM Land Registry record since 1995, updated with each monthly release. No valuations, no asking prices.

A postcode sector like S60 4 is a single group of streets within S60 (Rotherham), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

The going rate for a home in S60 4

In the S60 4 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £210,000, from 35 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £233,400, sitting modestly above it, the usual shape of a market with an expensive tail.

What a square metre costs in S60 4

Per square metre, S60 4 homes have averaged around £2,500 over the last five years of sales. The floor areas behind the figure come from Energy Performance Certificates, and the by-the-metre view is the fair comparison across home sizes.

England and Wales as a whole trade at a £285,000 median, leaving S60 4 26% below the national figure.

In cash terms the typical S60 4 home went from £52,200 in 1995 to £210,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 85%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 20% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+29.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−11.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Annualised returns

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.

Sales activity in S60 4

Over the last twelve months of data, 35 sales completed in S60 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 111 sales a year before the financial crisis and 79 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.

The shape of the S60 4 market

Only 35 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes S60 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

The rental side of S60 4

S60 4 falls under Rotherham, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £679 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £483 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,065 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

Against the £210,000 median purchase price, a rent of £679 a month (£8,148 a year) works out at a 3.9% 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.

S60 4 (Town Centre): the questions that come up

Will S60 4 prices rise from here?

Prediction is not this page's business. Its business is the record, which says: the median is up 5% over five years in cash but down 17% after inflation. Read the volume chart with the price chart before acting on either, remembering that registrations trail the deals themselves by weeks.
