The Old Farm is a detached house in Great Brickhill, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK17 9AH). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2020 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.
Today's modelled estimate of £549,000 is 68.1% below the 2022 sale of £1,720,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£4,319/sq ft) was about 1212.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include new windows and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: February 2022 at £1,720,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
