In cash terms the typical OX29 7 home went from £97,500 in 1995 to £375,000 in 2026, roughly 3.8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 77%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 40% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the OX29 7 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 2010 (+47.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−29.5%). 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) | −13.2% | −15.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.9% | −4.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.4% | −1.4% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Sales activity in OX29 7
How many homes change hands
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.
The register shows 26 OX29 7 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 90 sales a year over the last five years against 58 before the financial crisis. 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 OX29 7
OX29 7 falls under West Oxfordshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,277 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £934 a month here against £2,041 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, West Oxfordshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £375,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,277 a month (£15,324 a year) works out at a 4.1% 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.
What kind of market OX29 7 is
This is a thin market: 26 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the OX29 district median, OX29 7 sits 15% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

What another bedroom costs in OX
What homes of each size actually sold for across the OX area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £390,000 | £512,000 (+31%) | £750,000 (+46%) | £1,175,000 (+57%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
