About 1 The Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 The Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Great Horwood, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK17 0QG). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D.

Today's modelled estimate of £385,000 sits 63.1% above the 2004 sale of £236,000.
