How Cherwell Road, Wallingford prices moved
The chart tracks the median Cherwell Road, Wallingford house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2004 to 2008. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 3 | £187,950 | £342,390 |
The highest yearly median on record for Cherwell Road, Wallingford is £212,500 in 2008; the lowest is £181,950 in 2004. Across the full 5-year record the cash median has moved from £181,950 to £212,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £337,565, so the real change over the whole record is +5.7% — about +1.39% 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.
Section 02
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 Cherwell Road, Wallingford 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. Cherwell Road, Wallingford 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 | 41 | 50.0% | £179,950 | £12,000 – £285,000 |
| Semi-detached | 36 | 43.9% | £187,000 | £46,800 – £360,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 5 | 6.1% | £202,500 | £148,950 – £240,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Cherwell Road, Wallingford
5 of the sales on record are leasehold and 77 freehold — 6.1% 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 £202,500 and the median freehold sale £184,950 — a gap of -8.7%. 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 | 5 | 6.1% | £202,500 |
| Freehold | 77 | 93.9% | £184,950 |
| New build | 17 | 20.7% | £181,500 |
| Existing home | 65 | 79.3% | £190,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -4.5%. 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.

Living in Cherwell Road, Wallingford
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across South Oxfordshire, 47.1% of 69,345 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.5% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 485 | 0.7% |
| B | 13,322 | 19.2% |
| C | 18,821 | 27.1% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in South Oxfordshire at £1,384 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,028 for a one-bedroom home and £1,592 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £184,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.98% 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 OX10, 47 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 22 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 5 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.6 times quieter.
Against the 149,085 residents the 2021 census counted in South Oxfordshire, that is 0.32 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.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Cherwell Road, Wallingford
The 2021 census counted 149,085 residents in South Oxfordshire across 61,498 households. 72.1% of those households own their home and 27.9% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
13 state and independent schools have a OX10 postcode: 12 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in South Oxfordshire at 10.0 times median local earnings of £44,822 a year, measured to Sep 2025.
