How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oak Yard | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector CO9 2 | – | £165,000 | £122,750 | £105,000 | £97,000 |

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 CO9 2, over the last five years (677 sales):
- What sells: 34% detached, 28% semi-detached, 21% terraced, 10% flats, 6% other.
- 13% sold leasehold, and 13% were new builds.
- 100 sales in the last twelve months, against 261 in the same twelve months five years ago.
