Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on SS16: steady sales, so price from the evidence

SS16 sees about 29 sales a month, 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, with detached homes at £590,000 and flats at £153,500, the £155,000 to £620,500 spread is really several markets, so price from sold homes that match yours in type and size; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.

Sell house

If you are looking to buy, SS16 sits above the UK average for typical prices, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

On any SS16 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (370 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,327 a year), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.

For what the averages cannot tell you, the free SS16 OfferCheck brings flood, crime, planning and council tax together.

In plain English

What the Basildon (SS16) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £590,000 against £153,500 for flats: about 3.8 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £155,000 and £620,500, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 29 recorded sales a month.

Basildon's council tax for 2026-27 set against the SS16 median sold price of £340,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the SS16 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 SS16 report: your questions

What is the average house price in SS16?
The typical (median) sold price in SS16 is £340,000, from 250 recorded sales between 5 December 2025 and 24 August 2026. Most sales fell between £155,000 and £620,500. 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 SS16?
Typical sold prices by type in SS16: terraced homes £325,000 (102 sales), detached homes £590,000 (57 sales), flats £153,500 (47 sales), semi-detached homes £402,500 (44 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in SS16?
SS16 is billed by Basildon, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,327 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 SS16?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the SS16 district centre, the nearest being Harris Academy Kingswood (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 SS16 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 SS16 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 SS16 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 10, with a median of decile 9 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 SS16 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near SS16?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 370 applications within 500 m of the SS16 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 SS16 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 249 distinct addresses in the records we hold for SS16, 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 SS16 cover my exact street?
SS16 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.
