What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Kings Lane, Faringdon is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Kings Lane, Faringdon

15 of the sales on record are leasehold and 41 freehold — 26.8% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

The median leasehold sale is £140,000 and the median freehold sale £340,000 — a gap of +142.9%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

New build23.6%£147,000
Existing home5496.4%£249,950
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -41.2%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

A further 2 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Vale of White Horse, 55.4% of 69,636 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.8% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Vale of White Horse at £1,336 a month as of Jun 2026 — £975 for a one-bedroom home and £1,485 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £247,475 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.48% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of SN7, 48 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 19 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 4 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.5 times quieter.

Against the 138,913 residents the 2021 census counted in Vale of White Horse, that is 0.35 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Section 08

The neighbourhood around Kings Lane, Faringdon

The 2021 census counted 138,913 residents in Vale of White Horse across 57,497 households. 70.0% of those households own their home and 29.9% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

8 state and independent schools have a SN7 postcode: 7 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Kings Lane, Faringdon compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Kings Lane, Faringdon sits above that national figure — +57.1%.

Within Faringdon the street ranks 137 of 247 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £230,000 (+7.6%).

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.

The full range on record runs from £52,500 to £842,500. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Kings Lane, Faringdon sits in Vale of White Horse, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Vale of White Horse at 8.9 times median local earnings of £45,194 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Kings Lane, Faringdon?

The median price paid in Kings Lane, Faringdon across every sale on the register is £247,475. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Kings Lane, Faringdon?

56 sales are on record for Kings Lane, Faringdon, the most recent completing on 29 Aug 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Kings Lane, Faringdon house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £125,250, set in 2001. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Kings Lane, Faringdon?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 29 Aug 2024. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
