What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Colchester Road, Bures is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 27 | 48.2% | £310,000 | £55,000 – £2,250,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Colchester Road, Bures
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 56 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 56 | 100.0% | £198,000 |
A further 9 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09
How Colchester Road, Bures compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Colchester Road, Bures sits above that national figure — +25.7%.
Within Bures the street ranks 31 of 41 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £238,000 (-16.8%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £978 per square metre, across 5 of the 56 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £42,000 to £2,250,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

56 sales are on record for Colchester Road, Bures, the most recent completing on 2 May 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
What is the price per square metre in Colchester Road, Bures?
£978 per square metre, from the 5 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 2 May 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
