Most house price reports stop at a single town average. We went further. ValuQ analysed 3,162 Basildon sales across 856 streets, drawn from HM Land Registry and refreshed on 7 May 2026, then broke the numbers down by the four Basildon postcodes and plotted every sale on an Ordnance Survey map. This is what the data shows.
What is the average house price in Basildon?
The average Basildon home sold for £334,000, with a median of £320,000. In the last 12 months alone there were 1,128 sales at an average of £333,000, so the market has been steady rather than spiking. A median is the middle price once every sale is lined up in order, which is often a fairer guide than the average because it is not pulled upward by a handful of expensive homes.
How do Basildon house prices vary by postcode?
A lot. The four postcodes that cover Basildon, SS13 to SS16, tell four different stories. The table below is ValuQ's own breakdown by property type and the 12-month price trend in each.
Basildon sold prices by postcode (ValuQ analysis of HM Land Registry data, to March 2026)
| Postcode | Detached | Semi-detached | Flat | 12-month trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SS13 | £462,000 | £351,000 | £180,000 | -1.3% |
| SS14 | £414,000 | £363,000 | £192,000 | -1.4% |
| SS15 | £512,000 | £397,000 | £202,000 | +1.4% |
| SS16 | £591,000 | £396,000 | £190,000 | -8.0% |
SS16 has the most expensive detached homes at £591,000, but it also saw the sharpest fall over the year, down 8.0%, which usually points to a small number of high-value sales dropping out of the recent figures. SS15 was the only postcode to rise, up 1.4%. Flats barely move between postcodes, sitting between £180,000 and £202,000 right across Basildon.
Which part of Basildon is most expensive?
Within the borough, the named areas separate out clearly.
Average sold price by Basildon area (ValuQ analysis of HM Land Registry data)
| Area | Average sold price |
|---|---|
| Langdon Hills | £375,000 |
| Basildon (town) | £295,000 |
| Pitsea | £230,000 |
Langdon Hills sits well above the borough average, while Pitsea is the most affordable entry point. That £145,000 gap between the two, only a few miles apart, is exactly why a borough-wide average is a blunt tool when you are pricing one specific home.
