How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| High Balk | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector S75 1 | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £119,950 |
| Barnsley | £102,000 | £85,000 +20% since | £71,000 +44% since | £85,000 +20% since | £105,000 -3% since |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in S75 1, over the last five years (759 sales):
- What sells: 39% detached, 34% semi-detached, 16% terraced, 7% flats, 4% other.
- 13% sold leasehold, and 15% were new builds.
- 121 sales in the last twelve months, against 263 in the same twelve months five years ago.
