Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on DE56: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

250 sales since March 2026 make DE56 a steady market, enough to learn from, though the year-on-year comparison is too thin to quote, so lean on the recent sold homes.

When selling here, the spread in DE56 is wide, with most sales between £142,500 and £460,750, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.

Sell house

For buyers, typical prices in DE56 sit below the UK average, so find out why prices run lower here before deciding it is good value.

Before you offer in DE56, check planning history nearby (1,121 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,408 a year), and ask your conveyancer about the title.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free DE56 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the Amber Valley (DE56) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £375,000 against £155,000 for flats: about 2.4 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £142,500 and £460,750, so the median says little about any one home.
  • Nearly all of these sales (93%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
  • This is an active district: about 43 recorded sales a month.

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.

Questions, answered

The DE56 report: your questions

What is the average house price in DE56?
The typical (median) sold price in DE56 is £250,000, from 250 recorded sales between 3 March 2026 and 27 August 2026. Most sales fell between £142,500 and £460,750. That is below the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in DE56?
Typical sold prices by type in DE56: detached homes £375,000 (87 sales), semi-detached homes £247,500 (71 sales), terraced homes £190,000 (71 sales), flats £155,000 (17 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in DE56?
DE56 is billed by Amber Valley, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,408 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near DE56?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the DE56 district centre, the nearest being Herbert Strutt Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the DE56 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is DE56 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 DE56 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 4 to decile 10, with a median of decile 8 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like DE56 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near DE56?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 1121 applications within 500 m of the DE56 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in DE56 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 244 distinct addresses in the records we hold for DE56, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does DE56 cover my exact street?
DE56 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
