What a square metre costs in SK17 8

| 1995 | £53,000 | £115,214 | 77 |
In cash terms the typical SK17 8 home went from £53,000 in 1995 to £255,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 121%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2005. The market now sits about 22% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SK17 8 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 (+30.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2010 (−16.5%). 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) | −7.1% | −9.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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
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 register shows 41 SK17 8 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 113 sales a year before the financial crisis and 77 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 homes rent for around SK17 8
SK17 8 falls under Derbyshire Dales, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £805 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £583 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,331, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Derbyshire Dales
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £255,000 median sold price, £805 a month is £9,660 a year, a gross yield of 3.8%: 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 SK17 8 is
This is a thin market: 41 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.

Bedroom by bedroom: SK prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SK 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.
