OX28 4 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside OX28 (Witney). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical OX28 4 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £308,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 136%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2018; the current median sits about 30% below that. Someone who bought at the 2018 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the OX28 4 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2000 (+37.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−13.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +4.4% | +2.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.9% | −1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 19 sales completed in OX28 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 70 sales a year before the financial crisis and 46 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
Rents around OX28 4
OX28 4 falls under West Oxfordshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,277 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £934 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,041 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, West Oxfordshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £308,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,277 a month (£15,324 a year) works out at a 5.0% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
Reading the OX28 4 market
This is a thin market: 19 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Within OX28, this sector trades 8% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Moving up a bedroom in OX: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the OX area, from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
