How Oaktree Road, Marlow prices moved
The chart tracks the median Oaktree Road, Marlow house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2009. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £137,250 | £304,760 |
| 2000s | 7 | £305,000 | £555,620 |
The highest yearly median on record for Oaktree Road, Marlow is £420,500 in 2007; the lowest is £114,000 in 1996. Across the full 14-year record the cash median has moved from £114,000 to £333,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £247,292, so the real change over the whole record is +121.3% — about +6.30% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +122.0% in cash against +79.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Oaktree Road, Marlow values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Oaktree Road, Marlow is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 44 | 54.3% | £281,000 | £110,000 – £706,000 |
| Semi-detached | 33 | 40.7% | £249,950 | £105,000 – £420,500 |
| Terraced | 4 | 4.9% | £220,000 | £192,255 – £350,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Oaktree Road, Marlow
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 81 freehold — 0.0% 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 81 | 100.0% | £275,000 |
| New build | 3 | 3.7% | £382,000 |
| Existing home | 78 | 96.3% | £272,500 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +40.2%. 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Buckinghamshire, 47.8% of 262,827 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.4% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 1,146 | 0.4% |
| B | 36,297 | 13.8% |
| C | 88,289 | 33.6% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Buckinghamshire at £1,476 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,035 for a one-bedroom home and £1,603 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £275,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.44% 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 SL7, 66 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 23 violent, 5 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 10 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.5 times quieter.
Against the 553,078 residents the 2021 census counted in Buckinghamshire, that is 0.12 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.

The neighbourhood around Oaktree Road, Marlow
The 2021 census counted 553,078 residents in Buckinghamshire across 220,327 households. 71.3% of those households own their home and 28.7% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

How Oaktree Road, Marlow compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Oaktree Road, Marlow sits above that national figure — +74.6%.
Within Marlow the street ranks 207 of 284 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £340,000 (-19.1%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,694 per square metre, across 10 of the 81 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £105,000 to £706,000. 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.
Oaktree Road, Marlow sits in Buckinghamshire, in the South East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Buckinghamshire at 11.3 times median local earnings of £40,365 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 Oaktree Road, Marlow?
The median price paid in Oaktree Road, Marlow across every sale on the register is £275,000. 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 Oaktree Road, Marlow?

In cash, the median rose +122.0% between 1999 and 2009. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +79.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Oaktree Road, Marlow house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £420,500, set in 2007. 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 Oaktree Road, Marlow?
£2,694 per square metre, from the 10 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 23 Oct 2009. 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.
