OX1 (Oxford): what the registers record
A district-wide reading of OX1, in Oxford (South East), from named official registers. Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, September 2026 edition, published 28 September 2026: 1,864 in-district sales over 2016–2025. Generated 15 October 2026 by the same pipeline that produces every brief; regenerated when the register is.
OX1 spans more than one council. The figures that depend on an authority (council tax, rents, the planning portal) are those of Oxford, the council at the district centroid. OX1 also reaches Vale of White Horse.
Everything below is stated as recorded. Nothing is graded, ranked, forecast or recommended. The reads are measured from the OX1 district centroid, so point measures such as a flood zone are not stated for the district as a whole.

What homes in OX1 sold for in 2025
For one home, LuxProperty gives an estimated range from the public registers, tested on 2025 sales. It is not a valuation. These are the prices recorded for homes sold in OX1 in 2025, flats and houses separately. The middle half runs from the lower to the upper quartile: a quarter of sales were below it and a quarter above.

What the Registers Record
Eight reads, each from one source, each stated as recorded. Nothing here is graded, ranked or aimed at a type of buyer. Weigh them against what you are buying for.
- Price trend
The 2025 median in OX1 is £485,000 on 184 sales; 2024 was £475,000 on 172. The move between them is smaller than the two medians' margins of error, so no year-on-year change is stated.
- Sold-price evidence
1,864 in-district Land Registry sales in OX1, 2016–2025; 184 in 2025. Median over the window £445,000. The sample describes the district, not any one property.
- Flood risk· not resolved
A flood zone is a point measure, and this brief is for the OX1 district as a whole, so none is stated for the district centroid. A full postcode gives a point read.
- Coal mining· not resolved
Coal mining is a point read at a postcode centroid, and this brief is for the OX1 district as a whole, so none is stated for the district centroid. A full postcode gives a point read.
- Crime mix
511 crimes recorded within about 1 mile in August 2026; 159 (31%) violence, sexual offences or robbery. police.uk snaps each incident to a representative location, so this describes the radius, not a street.
- Planning designations
Recorded at the OX1 district centroid (Oxford LPA): Article 4 direction. No conservation area.
- Letting economics
Gross yield 4.5%–6.2% across 4 priced property types (ONS PIPR rent for Oxford, August 2026, over the OX1 type-matched sold median). The lowest, 4.5%, is below the national upper quartile of 5.1% measured across 2,117 districts. Gross, and the rent is a stock average for the whole authority. Recorded sales average 186 a year over 10 years; 184 in 2025.
- Neighbourhood
Nearest station Oxford 14 min, 1 in range; 8 schools, nearest 1 min; 28 food shops within 1.2 km, 55 cafés/restaurants within 800 m, 5 GP/health within 1.5 km. Straight-line distances from OpenStreetMap; walk times assume 80 m/min. Measured from the OX1 district centroid.

Each line is a register reading for the area around this postcode, not a judgement about it or about any property. Read the sections, and verify anything that will drive your decision.
Sources are those of the sections each resolved read names: HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (price trend, sold-price evidence), data.police.uk street-level crime (crime mix), MHCLG Planning Data platform (planning designations), ONS Price Index of Private Rents over Land Registry type-matched medians (letting economics), and OpenStreetMap with data.police.uk (neighbourhood). No source is named for the flood risk and coal mining reads, which did not resolve here. Every figure here also appears, with its own footnote, in the section it came from.
Executive Summary
OX1 is a postcode district in Oxford (South East), assessed district-wide from its centroid. Across 1,864 in-district Land Registry sales over 2016–2025, the median sold price is £445,000.
The 2025 median is £485,000 on 184 sales; 2024 was £475,000 on 172 sales. The move between them is smaller than the two medians' margins of error, so no year-on-year change is stated.
Recorded sales activity is active (184 sales in 2025), which is why confidence in these figures is rated high. The sample is large enough for the area reads to be reliable.
This median describes sales across the whole of OX1, not any individual property. Land Registry Price Paid Data records the price only, not the condition, size or tenure of what was sold, so it cannot be used as a valuation of a specific home.
Behind these figures
Summary derived from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (the same deduped in-district transaction set as every price figure in this brief) and the Postcodes.io location lookup. Market-trajectory and sales-activity labels use fixed thresholds shown against each signal.
Sold Prices & Trend
Sold price data as of September 2026.
This median describes sales across the whole of OX1, not any individual property. Land Registry Price Paid Data records the price only, not the condition, size or tenure of what was sold, so it cannot be used as a valuation of a specific home.
Based on 1,864 Land Registry transactions in OX1 over 10 years (184 in the most recent full year) — a sample large enough for the area figures to be reliable. The confidence is in the sample, not in any figure as a valuation.

| 2024 | 172 | £475,000 | — |
| 2025 | 184 | £485,000 | — |
A blank in the change column means that year's move was smaller than the uncertainty in the two medians it is drawn from — not that prices held steady. Where a change is shown, it is larger than that uncertainty.

Planning Activity & Risk Flags
Risk flags
1 planning designation recorded at the OX1 district centroid — designations are point-specific, so a full postcode gives the picture for an exact address.
Specific permitted-development rights have been withdrawn here, so changes that would normally be automatic (e.g. some extensions, changes of use) need a full planning application.
Live planning-application counts aren't available from any free national feed, so none is shown here (a figure would be guesswork). To see current and recent applications for a specific address, search the Oxford planning portal.
Open the council planning portalPlanning designations: MHCLG Planning Data platform (planning.data.gov.uk), point-in-polygon at the coordinates · LPA: Oxford LPA. Each designation's date is its official designation/start date. Listed-building status is not assessed here: the source is building-outline polygons, and a postcode centroid rarely falls inside one, so a miss is not evidence that the property is unlisted. Check the address on the National Heritage List for England (historicengland.org.uk) or Cadw for Wales. Live applications are not shown — check the council portal (www.oxford.gov.uk).

Buying Costs
| Band | Rate | Tax on portion |
|---|---|---|
| £125,001–£250,000 | 2% | £2,500 |
| £250,001–£925,000 | 5% | £9,750 |
Additional property: Buying an additional property (second home or buy-to-let) adds a 5% surcharge on every band.
First-time buyers: First-time buyers pay no SDLT up to £300,000, then 5% on £300,001–£500,000 (no relief on purchases above £500,000).
- Stress-test affordability against higher interest rates: lenders check whether you could still meet repayments if rates rose, and your budget should survive the same test.
- If the property is leasehold, check the remaining lease term, ground rent and service charges before offering — short leases (under ~80 years) are expensive to extend and can affect mortgageability.
Stamp Duty Land Tax rates effective 1 April 2025.
Council tax: Oxford area Band D £2,678/yr — the whole bill, including county, police, fire, parish and adult social care precepts. MHCLG council tax levels 2026/27. Bands A–H derived via the statutory multipliers (A=6/9 … D=1 … H=2). Use the gov.uk checker for a property's confirmed band.
Rental Snapshot
£1,963 pcm is the average rent currently being paid across all private tenancies in Oxford, from the ONS Price Index of Private Rents, August 2026.
These two breakdowns describe the same rental stock cut two different ways — they are not a cross-tabulation. ONS publishes no figure for, say, a two-bed flat, so one cannot be read off the two groups together.
Rents: ONS Price Index of Private Rents (PIPR), local-authority level for England and Wales, published monthly. PIPR price levels are a weighted geometric average of modelled prices across the private rental STOCK — not a median, and PIPR publishes no quartiles. England and Wales inputs are achieved rents (what tenants actually pay) across a mix of new and existing tenancies. Bedroom and property-type figures are separate breakdowns of the same stock, not a cross-tabulation: there is no "two-bed flat" figure. See the ONS 'Private rent and house prices, UK' bulletin (https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/inflationandpriceindices/bulletins/privaterentandhousepricesuk/latest).
Letting Economics
| Flat | 5.1% | £1,557 pcm × 12 ÷ £365,000(640 sales) |
| Terraced | 4.5% | £2,022 pcm × 12 ÷ £533,750(428 sales) |
| Semi-detached | 6.2% | £2,188 pcm × 12 ÷ £425,000(379 sales) |
| Detached | 5.4% | £2,593 pcm × 12 ÷ £577,000(417 sales) |
Each figure is the ONS PIPR rent for that property type in Oxford (August 2026), times twelve, divided by the Land Registry median sold price for the SAME property type in OX1. Matching on type is what makes the division meaningful; PIPR's bedroom figures are shown in the Rental Snapshot but cannot be used here, because Price Paid Data records no bedroom count.
Two things still do not line up, and neither is hidden. The rent is the whole of Oxford; the price is just the OX1 district — a narrower area inside it, so the two describe different ground. And the rent is a stock average across new and existing tenancies, which sits below what a new letting achieves, biasing these yields DOWN by an amount ONS does not publish and we do not estimate. Gross, too: no voids, management, maintenance or tax.
1,864 recorded sales over 10 years; 184 in 2025.
Gross yield: ONS Price Index of Private Rents (local-authority, by property type) ÷ HM Land Registry median sold price for the same property type in this district. The rent covers the whole local authority and the price covers the postcode district, so the two grains differ; the rent is also a stock average and sits below new-let rates. Sales velocity: HM Land Registry recorded in-district sales per year. No tenant-demand, void or days-to-let data is used because none is available from a free national feed.

What this guide does not say
- No school grade. Each school is named with its distance and a link to its official Ofsted report page; the brief does not hold a verifiable per-school ratings feed and does not assert one.
- No development schemes. There is no national planning-application feed; planning designations at the district centroid are shown with their official reference and date instead.
- No valuation, offer figure or price forecast. District medians describe sales across the whole district, not any property.
- No year-on-year move unless it clears the margins of error of the two medians it is drawn from. Where it does not, that is said.
- No point measures for a whole district. A flood zone or an EPC profile belongs to an address; generate a brief for a full postcode for those.
- No resident commentary, testimonial or editorial verdict.
