8 Lower Stonehayes, Great Linford, Milton Keynes, MK14 5ES

8 Lower Stonehayes is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Linford, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK14 5ES). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 966 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £395,000 sits 66.3% above the 2007 sale of £237,500. At 90 m² it sits well below the postcode median (143 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
