How Church Lane, Oakham prices moved
The chart tracks the median Church Lane, Oakham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2023. 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 | 2 | £127,500 | £283,110 |
| 2000s | 7 | £280,000 | £510,078 |
| 2010s | 6 | £418,875 | £590,614 |
| 2020s | 3 | £550,000 | £561,957 |
The highest yearly median on record for Church Lane, Oakham is £677,500 in 2023; the lowest is £127,500 in 1997. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £132,500 to £677,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £287,423, so the real change over the whole record is +154.7% — about +3.52% 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: +60.4% in cash against +18.8% 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.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Church Lane, Oakham 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 | 135 | 79.9% | £400,000 | £65,000 – £2,530,000 |
| Semi-detached | 29 | 17.2% | £165,500 | £50,000 – £550,000 |
| Terraced | 5 | 3.0% | £188,000 | £71,000 – £335,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Church Lane, Oakham
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 169 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 | 169 | 100.0% | £363,000 |
| New build | 3 | 1.8% | £365,000 |
| Existing home | 166 | 98.2% | £361,500 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +1.0%. 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 3 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 Harborough, 50.4% of 45,538 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.8% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

Against the median sale of £363,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 3.18% 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.
No street-level crime was published for LE15 in Jun 2026. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

Within Oakham the street ranks 70 of 545 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £195,000 (+86.2%).

Church Lane, Oakham sits in Harborough, in the East Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Harborough at 10.4 times median local earnings of £31,890 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Church Lane, Oakham?

When were Church Lane, Oakham house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £677,500, set in 2023. 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 Church Lane, Oakham?
£5,034 per square metre, from the 2 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.

The latest sale shown here completed on 14 Apr 2026. 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.
