Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on ME2: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

At around 31 sales a month, ME2 ticks along steadily, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.

For sellers, £312,500 is the middle of a £209,700 to £480,600 range, so the real question is where in it your home sits; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.

Sell house

When buying here, typical prices in ME2 sit above the UK average, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (464 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,408 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

Our free ME2 OfferCheck puts the rest of the picture alongside these prices, and the Report explains which parts deserve a second look.

In plain English

What the Gravesham (ME2) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £541,500 against £196,000 for flats: about 2.8 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Nearly all of these sales (90%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
  • This is an active district: about 31 recorded sales a month.

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 ME2 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in ME2: 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 ME2 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 ME2 report: your questions

What is the average house price in ME2?
The typical (median) sold price in ME2 is £312,500, from 250 recorded sales between 18 December 2025 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £209,700 and £480,600. 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 ME2?
Typical sold prices by type in ME2: terraced homes £280,000 (105 sales), semi-detached homes £375,500 (88 sales), detached homes £541,500 (30 sales), flats £196,000 (20 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in ME2?
ME2 is billed by Gravesham, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,408 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 ME2?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the ME2 district centre, the nearest being Cedar Children's Academy (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 ME2 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 ME2 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 ME2 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 9, with a median of decile 7 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 ME2 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near ME2?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 464 applications within 500 m of the ME2 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 ME2 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 243 distinct addresses in the records we hold for ME2, 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 ME2 cover my exact street?
ME2 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.
