Sales by price band in CO1
How the 57 recent recorded sales in CO1 split across price bands — the shape of the local market, not just its midpoint:
Bands computed over the recorded-sales sample above. A sample is not the whole market — see the price trend below for the wider context.
Price trend: CO1 in context
An outcode sample is small, so set it against the wider market. The UK House Price Index (UKHPI) tracks average prices and annual change for the local authority and region CO1 sits in:
| Area | Average price | Annual change | As of |
|---|---|---|---|
| Colchester (local authority) | £297,349 | -0.5% | Jun 2026 |
| East of England (region) | £335,680 | +0.2% | Jun 2026 |
| England & Wales (national) | £286,360 | +1.2% | Jun 2026 |
UKHPI is a mix-adjusted index published with a ~2-month lag. A street-level (HPSSA) small-area median is available from ONS as a bulk download — not yet wired here, so we never fabricate it.
Indicative current area value in CO1
The CO1 median above is the mid-point of recent recorded sales. To bring it up to date, we index that median forward to Jun 2026 using the UK House Price Index annual change of -0.5% across Colchester:
How this is worked out
Base: £237,500 HM Land Registry median sold price for CO1 (sample to Jul 2026).
Indexed forward 0 months at the UKHPI annual change for Colchester (-0.5% a year, applied pro-rata = 0%) → £237,500.
The ±6% band is a stated area-dispersion allowance that widens the further the median is indexed forward. It is a transparent assumption, not a statistical confidence interval.
Indicative, area-level estimate from the HM Land Registry median + UK House Price Index. It is NOT a valuation or AVM of any single property — homes in CO1 vary widely by street, type, size and condition.
For a valuation of one exact property — its own sale history, EPC, flood and ground risk and a current estimate — check the address.

Sold-price portals stop at the price. We pair it with a ground-truth risk screen at the representative point for CO1 — the thing that actually moves value, insurance and mortgageability:
flood: recorded nearby · coal: no point match · subsidence: Probable · radon: 1/6

radon band 1/6 (below Affected-Area threshold)
Hazard risk is mapped below outcode level — these flags describe the area, not a single property. Check the exact address with the tools below.
