How this area has changed

Typical prices for detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area Now 5 years ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Bircham Road – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector SS2 5 – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Southend-On-Sea £532,500 £525,000 +1% since £410,000 +30% since £290,000 +84% since £277,250 +92% since

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
