How this area has changed
Typical prices for detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oakleaf Drive | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector BN26 6 | £507,500 | £365,000 +39% since | £320,000 +59% since | Not enough sales | £216,000 +135% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in BN26 6, over the last five years (672 sales):
- What sells: 46% semi-detached, 17% detached, 16% terraced, 15% flats, 6% other.
- 17% sold leasehold, and 5% were new builds.
- 109 sales in the last twelve months, against 229 in the same twelve months five years ago.
