The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £267,426. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Colchester are now selling for between £2,740 and £3,730 per square metre (£254 and £346 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 64 m², this implies a valuation between £175,000 and £239,000. Treat this as context only.
