Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on S74: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead
S74 sees about 17 sales a month, so there is a fair body of evidence, but not enough of it for a trustworthy twelve-month trend.
When selling here, the spread in S74 is wide, with most sales between £92,900 and £285,500, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.
Sell houseFor buyers, typical prices in S74 sit well below the UK average, so find out why prices run lower here before deciding it is good value.
Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (428 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,326 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.
With averages this broad, the free S74 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning and council tax from the official sources.

In plain English
What the Barnsley (S74) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £282,500 against £92,000 for flats: about 3.1 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £92,900 and £285,500, 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 17 recorded sales a month.

These are Barnsley's charges for 2026-27, the authority S74 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.

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 S74 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in S74: 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.

Cost to run
Two sources, one table
What it costs to run a home in S74, band by band
Barnsley's council tax for 2026-27 set against the S74 median sold price of £158,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearBarnsley | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £158,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,551 | £129 | 0.98% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,809 | £151 | 1.14% |

| H | over £320,000 | £4,652 | £388 | 2.94% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the S74 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.
