Coggeshall market report CO6, Colchester
The CO6 (Coggeshall) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 15,949 sales registered with HM Land Registry in CO6 (Colchester) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to July 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: the typical home in CO6 (Colchester) sold for £385,000 in 2026, the median of 170 registered sales, up 1% on five years earlier. The mean was £459,700, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,050 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 15,949 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.
CO6 is the postcode district covering Coggeshall, Earls Colne, Marks Tey in Colchester. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

What buyers actually paid in CO6
In the CO6 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £385,000, from 170 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £459,700, sitting a long way above it, which tells you a few very expensive sales are pulling the average up.
House prices per square metre in CO6
A square metre of CO6 home has cost about £4,050 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, CO6 runs 35% above it.

In cash terms the typical CO6 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £385,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 195%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 22% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CO6 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+26.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −3.7% | −6.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.3% | −4.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 46% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £490,000 against £182,500 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The last five years, month by month
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
CO6 recorded 354 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 621 sales a year before the financial crisis and 386 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
The shape of the CO6 market
CO6 sits 2 of 16 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.
Rents around CO6
For renting purposes CO6 sits in Colchester. The ONS average private rent there is £1,211 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £829 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,819 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Colchester
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £385,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,211 a month (£14,532 a year) works out at a 3.8% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

Prediction is not this page's business. Its business is the record, which says: the median is roughly flat over five years in cash but down 20% after inflation. Read the volume chart with the price chart before acting on either, remembering that registrations trail the deals themselves by weeks.

- Vesta Close, Coggeshall, Colchester
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
The price of an extra bedroom in CO
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CO area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £315,000 | £430,000 (+37%) | £625,000 (+45%) | £865,000 (+38%) |
| Semi-detached | £245,000 | £285,000 (+16%) | £335,000 (+18%) | £420,000 (+25%) | £565,000 (+35%) |
| Terraced | £225,000 | £255,000 (+13%) | £299,995 (+18%) | £381,000 (+27%) | £507,500 (+33%) |
| Flat | £150,000 | £190,000 (+27%) | £287,500 (+51%) | — | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
