Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on SS6: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

250 sales since November 2025 make SS6 a steady market, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.

For sellers, £412,500 is the middle of a £244,320 to £645,500 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 SS6 sit well above the UK average, so compare any asking price with sold homes of the same type before you commit.

Worth checking before you commit: planning history nearby (1,392 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,327 a year); your conveyancer should look at the title too.

Prices are only part of the picture: the free SS6 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning, council tax and schools, and the Report says which deserve your attention.

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 SS6 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 SS6 report: your questions

What is the average house price in SS6?
The typical (median) sold price in SS6 is £412,500, from 250 recorded sales between 28 November 2025 and 7 August 2026. Most sales fell between £244,320 and £645,500. That is well 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 SS6?
Typical sold prices by type in SS6: semi-detached homes £411,000 (110 sales), detached homes £550,000 (69 sales), flats £223,750 (34 sales), terraced homes £340,000 (29 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in SS6?
SS6 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 SS6?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the SS6 district centre, the nearest being The FitzWimarc 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 SS6 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 SS6 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 SS6 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 4 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 SS6 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near SS6?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 1392 applications within 500 m of the SS6 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 SS6 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 244 distinct addresses in the records we hold for SS6, 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 SS6 cover my exact street?
SS6 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.
