Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on CT6: steady sales, so price from the evidence

250 sales since February 2026 make CT6 a steady market, which is enough to price from, though not enough history for us to call a clear twelve-month direction.

If you are thinking of selling, CT6 buyers have mostly paid between £178,850 and £521,500, so start from the nearest comparable sale and work outwards; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.

Sell house

If you are looking to buy, typical prices in CT6 sit above the UK average, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

On any CT6 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (1,015 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,419 a year), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.

The free CT6 OfferCheck pulls sold prices, flood, crime, planning, council tax and schools into one sourced page; the Report says which matter for the home you have in mind.

CT6 8NT, 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 CT6 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in CT6: 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. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the CT6 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 CT6 report: your questions

What is the average house price in CT6?
The typical (median) sold price in CT6 is £335,000, from 250 recorded sales between 20 February 2026 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £178,850 and £521,500. That is above 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 CT6?
Typical sold prices by type in CT6: detached homes £436,000 (88 sales), semi-detached homes £324,000 (80 sales), terraced homes £263,000 (40 sales), flats £175,000 (35 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in CT6?
CT6 is billed by Canterbury, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,419 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 CT6?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the CT6 district centre, the nearest being Herne Bay Infant School (last Ofsted grade: Good). 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 CT6 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 CT6 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 CT6 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 7, 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 CT6 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near CT6?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 1015 applications within 500 m of the CT6 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 CT6 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 248 distinct addresses in the records we hold for CT6, 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 CT6 cover my exact street?
CT6 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.
