How Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield prices moved

The chart tracks the median Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2002 to 2021. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield is £256,750 in 2016; the lowest is £145,999 in 2002. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £145,999 to £212,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £281,612, so the real change over the whole record is -4.7% — about -0.25% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +31.2% in cash against +8.1% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield

186 of the sales on record are leasehold and 47 freehold — 79.8% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

The median leasehold sale is £160,000 and the median freehold sale £277,500 — a gap of +73.4%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -15.6%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

A further 3 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Sheffield at £925 a month as of Jun 2026 — £686 for a one-bedroom home and £960 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £167,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.65% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of S10, 167 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 35 violent, 8 burglary, 20 vehicle-related and 38 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.

Against the 556,521 residents the 2021 census counted in Sheffield, that is 0.30 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Section 08

How Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield sits above that national figure — +6.0%.

Within Sheffield the street ranks 1577 of 5878 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £118,500 (+40.9%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,944 per square metre, across 27 of the 233 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £80,999 to £535,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield sits in Sheffield, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Sheffield at 5.9 times median local earnings of £37,074 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield?

The median price paid in Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield across every sale on the register is £167,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield?

233 sales are on record for Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield, the most recent completing on 6 Feb 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +31.2% between 2011 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +8.1%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £256,750, set in 2016. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Holyrood Avenue, Sheffield?

£1,944 per square metre, from the 27 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 6 Feb 2026. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
