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.

Sheffield is above the regional rent average, but annual growth is lower
In September 2026, Sheffield’s average rent was £936, compared with £869 across Yorkshire and the Humber: a local average 7.7% higher than the regional figure. However, Sheffield’s annual rate of rent change was 0.7 percentage points lower than the regional rate. These ONS Private Rental Prices Index statistics cover new and existing tenancies; they are not advertised rents or comparable listings for an individual property.
Bedroom-size averages and growth
The average was £972 for a three bed and £1,345 for a four or more bed in September 2026. The annual rate of change was highest among the bedroom groups for a three bed at 4.5%, and lowest for a four or more bed at 3.5%—a spread of 1.0 percentage points. These are broad size-group statistics, not direct comparables for a particular home.
Rents by property type
In September 2026, the published averages ranged from £777 for a Flat Maisonette to £1,239 for a Detached. The annual rate of change was highest for a Semi-detached at 4.5%, and lowest for a Flat Maisonette at 3.5%. Type-group averages offer statistical context, rather than evidence of rents achieved by comparable listed properties.
