I have a £200 6th gen i5 with ssds running at home (hp prodesk). Costs about £2 a month to run. I spent the last decade building, deploying, managing colo servers. If you crack ipmi you won't be missing much on the learning front. I point all my test urls to this box using duckdns cnames. In colo you will pay for power which you do not need.
