Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on DE4: steady sales, so price from the evidence
DE4 is neither busy nor quiet, at about 36 sales a month, which is enough to price from, though not enough history for us to call a clear twelve-month direction.
If you are selling, with detached homes at £391,500 and flats at £175,000, the £165,000 to £505,500 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.
Sell houseIf you are buying, on price, DE4 is close to the UK average, so hold any asking price up against the sold homes of the same type.
Before an offer goes in on any DE4 home, look at what has been applied for nearby (100 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,408 a year), and leave the title to your conveyancer.
Averages only go so far, so the free DE4 OfferCheck sets flood, crime, planning and council tax beside the sold prices.

In plain English
What the Amber Valley (DE4) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £391,500 against £175,000 for flats: about 2.2 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £165,000 and £505,500, so the median says little about any one home.
- Nearly all of these sales (91%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
- This is an active district: about 36 recorded sales a month.

These are Amber Valley's charges for 2026-27, the authority DE4 falls in, not an estimate for any individual home. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and we never guess it; look up a band on GOV.UK and read your row. Bands reflect what a home was worth on 1 April 1991, not today.

Across the 12 sampled DE4 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 1 to decile 9, with a median of decile 6 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
DE4 4LQ, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 6 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so DE4 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in DE4: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

What it costs to run a home in DE4, band by band
Amber Valley's council tax for 2026-27 set against the DE4 median sold price of £280,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the DE4 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.
