Sheffield property market: common questions

Where is Sheffield?

Sheffield sits on the edge of South Yorkshire, covering about 50 square miles.

What is the average house price in Sheffield?

The median asking price across the 1,416 homes for sale in Sheffield is £190,000 (as of 6 October 2026). We quote the median (the middle listing) rather than a mean, because a handful of very expensive homes would pull a mean upwards. Half of listings ask between £135,000 and £270,000. That is 46% below the UK. Homes that actually sold in Sheffield went for a median £216,500 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Are house prices in Sheffield rising or falling?

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Sheffield is up 56% over the last 10 years and up 3% over the last 12 months (12 months to January 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Sheffield cheaper than the UK?

Yes: asking prices in Sheffield are typically lower than across the UK. The median asking price in Sheffield is £190,000 against £350k across the UK: 46% below the UK. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The saving holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How many homes are for sale in Sheffield?

1,416 homes are on the market in Sheffield right now, 502 of them listed in the last 30 days. Perch counts every listing it tracks across estate agents and portals, refreshed daily.

How much do flats and houses cost in Sheffield?

The median asking price for a flat in Sheffield is £120,000. Houses are quoted by type rather than as one figure, because the mix moves the number more than the market does: the largest group on the market is terraced houses, at a median £190,000 across 429 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Sheffield?

The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Sheffield is £150,000, across 219 current listings.

How much is a three-bedroom house in Sheffield?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Sheffield is semi-detached houses, at a median asking price of £220,000 across 268 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Sheffield?

In Sheffield, homes that sold went for a median £257 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £231 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (1,416 in Sheffield), refreshed daily, as of 6 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings.
  • Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Sheffield since May 2026.
  • UK comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of UK, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
  • Sold figures: HM Land Registry price paid data. Sold prices and sales counts cover the 12 months to January 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to July 2026, with floor areas from EPC certificates (the two run on different pipelines, and the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered). England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
