In cash terms the typical MK7 7 home went from £59,000 in 1995 to £276,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 116%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 25% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

Year-on-year change in the MK7 7 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 2016 (+35.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−21.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

The year-by-year sales count

Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.

The register shows 52 MK7 7 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 261 sales a year before the financial crisis and 88 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.

What kind of market MK7 7 is

Only 52 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes MK7 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Within MK7, this sector trades 11% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

What tenants pay around MK7 7

For renting purposes MK7 7 sits in Milton Keynes. The ONS average private rent there is £1,336 a month (May 2026). 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.

£1,336 a month is £16,032 a year, which against the £276,800 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.8%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

Of everything listed here, 58% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.

The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.

The price of an extra bedroom in MK

What homes of each size actually sold for across the MK area, from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
