Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on CT16: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

250 sales since October 2025 make CT16 a steady market, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.

When selling here, most sales in CT16 fell between £138,350 and £376,500, so check where your home would sit among the recent sales before choosing a number; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

For buyers, typical prices in CT16 sit below the UK average, so a lower price than the average is a prompt to ask why, not a reason to relax.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (163 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,462 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

What the Dover (CT16) numbers mean

Across the 12 sampled CT16 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 1 to decile 8, with a median of decile 5 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

CT16 3GW, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 5 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so CT16 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in CT16: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the CT16 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The CT16 report: your questions

What is the average house price in CT16?
The typical (median) sold price in CT16 is £240,000, from 250 recorded sales between 29 October 2025 and 18 August 2026. Most sales fell between £138,350 and £376,500. That is below the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in CT16?
Typical sold prices by type in CT16: terraced homes £220,000 (108 sales), semi-detached homes £280,000 (51 sales), flats £160,000 (47 sales), detached homes £400,000 (39 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in CT16?
CT16 is billed by Dover, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,462 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near CT16?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the CT16 district centre, the nearest being Green Park Community Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Outstanding). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the CT16 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is CT16 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 CT16 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 1 to decile 8, with a median of decile 5 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like CT16 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near CT16?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 163 applications within 500 m of the CT16 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in CT16 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 237 distinct addresses in the records we hold for CT16, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does CT16 cover my exact street?
CT16 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
