Bellsoph rental valuations are automated estimates based on advertised rental evidence and official statistics. They are not a formal or RICS valuation or financial advice, and achieved rents depend on condition, presentation, timing and demand. Market data: ONS Price Index of Private Rents and UK House Price Index, September 2026.
Barnsley rents sit below the regional average
In September 2026, the average rent in Barnsley was £697, 19.8% lower than the Yorkshire and the Humber average of £869. At the same time, Barnsley’s annual rent change was 2.4 percentage points higher than the regional rate. The lower rent level and faster annual change describe different comparisons; neither establishes that the gap is widening.
Bedroom count gives a useful rent range
The September 2026 averages ranged from £507 for one bed properties to £1,088 for four or more bed properties. The average for two bed homes was £631, and for three bed homes it was £754. These are statistical category averages, not advertised rents or direct comparables for a particular property. Match bedroom count and other relevant features when using them as context.
Property-type averages show another point of comparison
For September 2026, averages ranged from £579 for Flat Maisonette properties to £953 for Detached properties. The averages for Terraced and Semi-detached homes were £673 and £747 respectively. These broad categories provide context, but do not represent listings for like-for-like properties.
