Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on OX12: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

At around 27 sales a month, OX12 ticks along steadily, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.

When selling here, detached homes typically sold for £500,000 against £183,000 for flats, which explains a spread of £185,000 to £585,140, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

For buyers, on price, OX12 is above the UK average, so compare any asking price with sold homes of the same type before you commit.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (312 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,577 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

For what the averages cannot tell you, the free OX12 OfferCheck brings flood, crime, planning and council tax together.

In plain English

What the Vale of White Horse (OX12) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £500,000 against £183,000 for flats: about 2.7 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £185,000 and £585,140, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 27 recorded sales a month.

Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so OX12 spans several.

That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the OX12 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The OX12 report: your questions

What is the average house price in OX12?
The typical (median) sold price in OX12 is £330,000, from 250 recorded sales between 20 November 2025 and 24 August 2026. Most sales fell between £185,000 and £585,140. That is above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in OX12?
Typical sold prices by type in OX12: semi-detached homes £335,000 (81 sales), terraced homes £300,000 (66 sales), detached homes £500,000 (59 sales), flats £183,000 (39 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in OX12?
OX12 is billed by Vale of White Horse, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,577 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near OX12?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the OX12 district centre, the nearest being Fitzwaryn School (last Ofsted grade: Outstanding). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the OX12 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is OX12 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 OX12 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 6 to decile 9, with a median of decile 8 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like OX12 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near OX12?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 312 applications within 500 m of the OX12 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in OX12 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 237 distinct addresses in the records we hold for OX12, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does OX12 cover my exact street?
OX12 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
