What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Willoughby Drive, 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 | 77 | 96.3% | £290,000 | £75,500 – £625,000 |
| Terraced | 3 | 3.8% | £128,000 | £87,000 – £320,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Willoughby Drive, Oakham
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 80 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 | 80 | 100.0% | £282,500 |
A further 1 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.

Living in Willoughby Drive, Oakham
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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Harborough at £962 a month as of Jun 2026 — £706 for a one-bedroom home and £1,104 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £282,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.09% 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 156 of 545 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £195,000 (+44.9%).

Willoughby Drive, 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Willoughby Drive, Oakham?
The median price paid in Willoughby Drive, Oakham across every sale on the register is £282,500. 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 Willoughby Drive, Oakham?
80 sales are on record for Willoughby Drive, Oakham, the most recent completing on 26 Nov 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Willoughby Drive, Oakham house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +31.3% between 2002 and 2013. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -0.8%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Willoughby Drive, Oakham house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £308,500, set in 2013. 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 Willoughby Drive, Oakham?
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 26 Nov 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.
