In cash terms the typical S62 5 home went from £30,000 in 1995 to £149,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 130%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2005. The market now sits about 6% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the S62 5 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 (+61.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2000 (−10.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What S62 5 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.3% | +0.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.0% | +1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.8% | +3.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 32 sales completed in S62 5. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 126 sales a year before the financial crisis and 62 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.
What tenants pay around S62 5
S62 5 falls under Rotherham, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £679 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £483 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,065, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Rotherham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£679 a month is £8,148 a year, which against the £149,800 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.
How S62 5 trades
This is a thin market: 32 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. 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. Within S62, this sector trades 9% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

The price of an extra bedroom 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £235,000 | £330,000 (+40%) | £495,000 (+50%) | £750,000 (+52%) |
