In cash terms the typical S63 9 home went from £23,100 in 1995 to £158,500 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 216%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 17% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the S63 9 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 (+55.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−20.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.6% | −0.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.8% | −1.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.0% | +1.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.6% | +1.8% |
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.
How many homes change hands in S63 9
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
S63 9 recorded 48 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 212 sales a year before the financial crisis and 134 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around S63 9
For renting purposes S63 9 sits in Barnsley. The ONS average private rent there is £678 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £494 a month here against £1,061 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Barnsley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £158,500 median sold price, £678 a month is £8,136 a year, a gross yield of 5.1%: 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.
What kind of market S63 9 is
Only 48 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes S63 9 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 price of an extra bedroom in S
Real sold prices by size across the S area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

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

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
