How Otley Road, Skipton prices moved

The chart tracks the median Otley Road, Skipton house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2018. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Otley Road, Skipton is £224,500 in 2006; the lowest is £57,000 in 1995. Across the full 24-year record the cash median has moved from £57,000 to £217,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £126,567, so the real change over the whole record is +129.0% — about +3.67% 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: -3.1% in cash against -27.5% 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 Otley Road, Skipton values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Ownership and new build in Otley Road, Skipton

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 131 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.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -33.3%. 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in North Yorkshire at £838 a month as of Jun 2026 — £586 for a one-bedroom home and £929 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £165,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.09% 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 BD23 in Jun 2026 by North Yorkshire. 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.

How Otley Road, Skipton compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Otley Road, Skipton sits above that national figure — +4.8%.

Within Skipton the street ranks 309 of 547 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £162,000 (+1.9%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,117 per square metre, across 40 of the 131 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 £40,000 to £560,000. 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.

Otley Road, Skipton sits in North Yorkshire, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in North Yorkshire at 7.9 times median local earnings of £34,785 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 Otley Road, Skipton?

How many homes have sold in Otley Road, Skipton?

131 sales are on record for Otley Road, Skipton, the most recent completing on 13 Feb 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose -3.1% between 2006 and 2018. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -27.5%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Otley Road, Skipton house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £224,500, set in 2006. 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 Otley Road, Skipton?

£2,117 per square metre, from the 40 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 13 Feb 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.
