About 28 Birchen Lee
28 Birchen Lee is a four-bedroom detached house in Emerson Valley, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK4 2JX). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 136 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£369/sq ft) was about 92.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £540,000 in December 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
