In cash terms the typical SK23 7 home went from £52,200 in 1995 to £293,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 159%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 12% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SK23 7 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 2002 (+38.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2017 (−14.7%). 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) | +4.8% | +2.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.3% | −1.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
How many homes change hands in SK23 7
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 44 sales completed in SK23 7. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 180 sales a year before the financial crisis and 113 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.
Reading the SK23 7 market
Only 44 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SK23 7 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. Within SK23, this sector trades 8% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of SK23 7
The local authority for SK23 7 is High Peak, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £907 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £605 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,388, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, High Peak
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £293,500 median purchase price, a rent of £907 a month (£10,884 a year) works out at a 3.7% 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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
The price of an extra bedroom in SK
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SK area, 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £330,000 | £474,050 (+44%) | £712,500 (+50%) | £1,000,000 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £227,000 | £265,000 (+17%) | £343,225 (+30%) | £475,000 (+38%) | £660,000 (+39%) |

| Flat | £135,000 | £200,000 (+48%) | £300,000 (+50%) | £450,000 (+50%) | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
