A Well-Connected Hub
Strategically positioned between London and Birmingham, Milton Keynes enjoys excellent transport links.

The town also benefits from its efficient network of local roads, redways (cycle paths), and public transport options, making getting around easy and convenient.

Despite its status as a modern town, Milton Keynes is proud of its extensive parklands, lakes, and woodlands, which make up around 25% of the area. Popular destinations include Willen Lake, Campbell Park, and Ouzel Valley Park, which offer everything from peaceful walks to adrenaline-fueled water sports. For cultural pursuits, Milton Keynes Theatre is one of the largest performing arts venues in the region, while the MK Gallery showcases contemporary art. The town is also home to major retail centres like the bustling Centre and Xscape, offering a broad range of shops, restaurants, and entertainment options.

Photography
Creating the best first impression of your home is essential in order to achieve a quick sale. Our professional photography is captured using the highest quality professional grade cameras, lenses and flashes. We do not use fish-eye lenses to give a false impression; however, we will spend time preparing and improving the RAW image data in professional software to ensure that your home is presented in its best light with images that will induce a ‘show-home’ appeal.
Floor Plans
Our in-house surveyors are experienced CAD operatives and we draft all our own floor plans. This enables us to ensure a higher degree of accuracy than the typical estate agent floor plan. We also provide a level of detail that enables potential purchasers to understand the space and amenities within your home. We obtain our measurements for the floor plans using the latest laser scanners which helps to ensure quick, safe, and accurate collection of data.
3D Virtual Tours (Matterport)
As standard on all of our properties, David Cosby Estate Agents provide 3D Virtual Matterport Tours. This is a wonderful visual tool that creates 'an always-open house' allowing potential purchasers a high fidelity tour of your property that will be perfectly staged 100% of the time. It even enables the viewer to take dimensions - critical for planning their new furniture layouts!

A Brief History of Land Surveying
While surveying a late eighteenth-century mill house in Brackley, we uncovered original carpenters’ marks on the roof trusses — Roman numerals cut into the oak that reveal how Georgian roof frames were set out, assembled, and raised with remarkable accuracy.
Fire Mark Plaques on Older Homes: What Are They?
Fire mark plaques are small metal signs fixed to older buildings, dating from a time when fire protection was provided by private insurance companies rather than public fire brigades. Often found on Georgian and early Victorian houses, these plaques offer a fascinating insight into early property insurance and the development of modern fire services.
Property Auction Sales in Northamptonshire
