How Abbeyhills Road, Oldham prices moved
The chart tracks the median Abbeyhills Road, Oldham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2019. 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 | 5 | £26,000 | £57,732 |
| 2000s | 10 | £39,000 | £71,047 |
| 2010s | 5 | £88,000 | £124,080 |
The highest yearly median on record for Abbeyhills Road, Oldham is £105,000 in 2019; the lowest is £17,000 in 1998. Across the full 25-year record the cash median has moved from £26,000 to £105,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £57,732, so the real change over the whole record is +137.9% — about +3.68% 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: +52.2% in cash against +21.1% 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.

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 Abbeyhills Road, Oldham values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Abbeyhills Road, Oldham 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 225 | 92.6% | £39,000 | £5,000 – £185,000 |
| Semi-detached | 17 | 7.0% | £75,798 | £33,000 – £125,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 1 | 0.4% | £86,000 | £86,000 – £86,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Abbeyhills Road, Oldham
235 of the sales on record are leasehold and 8 freehold — 96.7% 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 £40,000 and the median freehold sale £77,500 — a gap of +93.8%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 235 | 96.7% | £40,000 |
| Freehold | 8 | 3.3% | £77,500 |
| New build | 1 | 0.4% | £112,500 |
| Existing home | 242 | 99.6% | £41,083 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +173.8%. 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 12 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.

No street-level crime was published for OL4 in Jun 2026 by Greater Manchester. 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Oldham at 6.1 times median local earnings of £33,860 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 Abbeyhills Road, Oldham?
The median price paid in Abbeyhills Road, Oldham across every sale on the register is £41,166. 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 Abbeyhills Road, Oldham?

When were Abbeyhills Road, Oldham house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £105,000, set in 2019. 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 Abbeyhills Road, Oldham?
£297 per square metre, from the 31 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 30 Jun 2021. 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.
