Overview

About 1 Helmsley Rise

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

1 Helmsley Rise is a detached house in Kingsmead, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK4 4AR). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2015. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £389,000 sits 152.7% above the 2001 sale of £153,950.
