Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £205,496. 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 £2,810 and £3,770 per square metre (£261 and £350 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 50 m², this implies a valuation between £140,000 and £188,000. Treat this as context only.
