About 85b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
85b is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Fishermead, Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes (MK6 2BG). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 50 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 56 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–128 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2025) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good.
Held since January 2007 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (106 m² across 55 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £128,000 is 42.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£167/sq ft) was about 62.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 85b is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK6 2BG. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 85b. 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 85b was lodged in February 2025 at band C and is valid until February 2035. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 85b. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK6 2BG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 85b 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.
