Overview

About 9 Cardwell Close

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

9 Cardwell Close is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Emerson Valley, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK4 2LB). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2011. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 sits 55.6% above the 2008 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£306/sq ft) was about 47.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 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 70% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 9 Cardwell Close is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK4 2LB. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 9 Cardwell Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 9 Cardwell Close was lodged in August 2019 at band D and is valid until August 2029. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 9 Cardwell Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK4 2LB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
9 Cardwell Close is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
