Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on ST16: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead
At around 37 sales a month, ST16 ticks along steadily, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.
When selling here, detached homes typically sold for £335,000 against £113,000 for flats, which explains a spread of £115,900 to £355,700, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.
Sell houseFor buyers, on price, ST16 is below the UK average, so find out why prices run lower here before deciding it is good value.
Worth checking before you commit: planning history nearby (529 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,303 a year); your conveyancer should look at the title too.
With averages this broad, the free ST16 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning and council tax from the official sources.

In plain English
What the Stafford (ST16) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £335,000 against £113,000 for flats: about 3.0 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £115,900 and £355,700, so the median says little about any one home.
- This is an active district: about 37 recorded sales a month.

These are Stafford's charges for 2026-27, the authority ST16 falls in, not an estimate for any individual home. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and we never guess it; look up a band on GOV.UK and read your row. Bands reflect what a home was worth on 1 April 1991, not today.

Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled ST16 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 1 to decile 10, with a median of decile 8 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
ST16 1LZ, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 8 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
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 ST16 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in ST16: 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.

Cost to run
Two sources, one table
What it costs to run a home in ST16, band by band
Stafford's council tax for 2026-27 set against the ST16 median sold price of £220,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearStafford | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £220,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,535 | £128 | 0.70% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,791 | £149 | 0.81% |
| C | £52,001–£68,000 | £2,047 | £171 | 0.93% |
| D | £68,001–£88,000 | £2,303 | £192 | 1.05% |
| E | £88,001–£120,000 | £2,814 | £235 | 1.28% |
| F | £120,001–£160,000 | £3,326 | £277 | 1.51% |

| H | over £320,000 | £4,605 | £384 | 2.09% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the ST16 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.
