In cash terms the typical MK15 home went from £56,000 in 1995 to £337,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 177%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 18% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the MK15 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 1997 (+25.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 38% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £555,000 against £240,000 for a flat, 2.3 times the price.

Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Sales activity in MK15
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
MK15 recorded 66 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 198 sales a year before the financial crisis and 80 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What homes rent for around MK15
The local authority for MK15 is Milton Keynes, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,336 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £972 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,080, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Milton Keynes
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £337,500 median sold price, £1,336 a month is £16,032 a year, a gross yield of 4.8%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.
The shape of the MK15 market
This is a thin market: 66 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict.

Is MK15 (Bolbeck Park) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in MK15 (Bolbeck Park)?
Where do MK15 prices go next?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 5% over five years in cash but down 17% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.
When homes in MK15 change hands
February is when MK15 changes hands most (11.6% of the 474 sales dated 2021 to 2025); January is the quiet end at 5.9%. The gap between the two is wide enough to plan around: completion follows the agreed sale by weeks, so the busiest month for completions points to deals done earlier, and a seller wanting several bidders should list ahead of it.
Sales by month, 2021 to 2025

Bedroom by bedroom: MK prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the MK area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £309,995 | £366,000 (+18%) | £425,000 (+16%) | £525,000 (+24%) | £650,000 (+24%) |
| Semi-detached | £260,000 | £300,000 (+15%) | £345,000 (+15%) | £400,000 (+16%) | £490,000 (+23%) |
| Terraced | £238,250 | £277,000 (+16%) | £295,000 (+6%) | £357,250 (+21%) | £420,000 (+18%) |
| Flat | £145,000 | £200,000 (+38%) | £240,000 (+20%) | £287,500 (+20%) | £410,000 (+43%) |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
