Mapperley Rent Prices in Nottingham 2026
Our Verdict
"Bougie"
With a median of £14.5/m², Mapperley is firmly in 'BOUGIE' territory, driven by high demand for Victorian conversions that haven't been wrecked by student HMOs. The price range of £11.8 - £18.2/m² monthly reflects the disparity between tired flats and the premium semi-detached homes near the Plains. Our neighborhood analysis suggests you are paying for the postcode prestige, but the investment outlook is stable because supply on the 'Top' never quite meets the demand.
The Vibe:It is a hilltop stronghold for those who want distance from the city's noise without hitting the motorway. Mapperley Top serves as the spine of the area, packed with independent shops and enough charity outlets to kit out a wardrobe in designer labels. You are reliant on the 45 bus or your own car, as the vertical climb from the city center isn't for the faint-hearted.
The median rent price in Mapperley, Nottingham is £14.5 per m² per month, 14% below the Nottingham city average of £16.8/m². Based on 1 verified rental data points as of February 2026.

Locals Ask
Is parking a nightmare around Woodborough Road?
Unless you have a dedicated driveway, expect to spend ten minutes circling side streets every evening.
Why are m² stats higher here than in nearby Sherwood?
Mapperley commands a 'view premium' and maintains a stricter residential feel that avoids the spillover of the city's nightlife.
Is the investment outlook good for new landlords?
Yields are tighter than in Sneinton, but the tenant profile is more reliable and stays for years rather than months.
Can I survive here without a car?
The bus links into Nottingham are frequent, but the walk back up the hill with groceries is a genuine physical challenge.
What is the typical Average Rent for a two-bed flat?
Expect to pay toward the £18.2/m² end of the scale for anything with a modern kitchen and decent insulation.
