Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on OX5: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

OX5 is neither busy nor quiet, at about 21 sales a month, so there is a fair body of evidence, but not enough of it for a trustworthy twelve-month trend.

When selling here, £390,000 is only the middle of a market that runs from £234,000 to £710,000, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; roughly 21 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.

Sell house

For buyers, OX5 sits well above the UK average for typical prices, so compare any asking price with sold homes of the same type before you commit.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (458 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,527 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free OX5 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the Buckinghamshire (OX5) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £511,250 against £220,000 for flats: about 2.3 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £234,000 and £710,000, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 21 recorded sales a month.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so OX5 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in OX5: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

What it costs to run a home in OX5, band by band

Buckinghamshire's council tax for 2026-27 set against the OX5 median sold price of £390,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

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 OX5 report: your questions

What is the average house price in OX5?
The typical (median) sold price in OX5 is £390,000, from 250 recorded sales between 8 August 2025 and 7 August 2026. Most sales fell between £234,000 and £710,000. That is well 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 OX5?
Typical sold prices by type in OX5: semi-detached homes £400,000 (93 sales), detached homes £511,250 (66 sales), terraced homes £339,500 (60 sales), flats £220,000 (25 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in OX5?
OX5 is billed by Buckinghamshire, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,527 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 OX5?
The Department for Education's register lists 6 open schools within 3 km of the OX5 district centre, the nearest being North Kidlington Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Good). 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 OX5 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 OX5 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 OX5 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 6 to decile 10, with a median of decile 9 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 OX5 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near OX5?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 458 applications within 500 m of the OX5 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 OX5 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 243 distinct addresses in the records we hold for OX5, 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 OX5 cover my exact street?
OX5 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.
