Overview

About 13 Banktop Place

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

13 Banktop Place is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Emerson Valley, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK4 2ER). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). At 51 m² this is the 10th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–97 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 34 units on file.

It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 sits 284.4% above the 2009 sale of £45,000.
