We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Sold with no upward chain! Located on Donington Drive in the historic market town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch, this three-bedroom detached home represents a superb opportunity.
Positioned in a quiet residential area, the property is a ”blank canvas” in need of some modernisation, offering the rare chance to tailor a home to your exact taste and specification.
The ground floor has an entrance hallway, with understair storage, that leads into an expansive, light-filled living and dining room.
This dual-purpose space includes a fireplace, while large sliding doors at the rear open directly onto the patio.
This layout creates an effortless flow between the interior and the garden, ideal for modern living and outdoor entertaining.
The hallway also leads onto the kitchen, which has plenty of built-in appliances for ease and functionality.
From the kitchen, there is side access and also access back into the dining and living room, creating a unique flow to the property.
Additionally, the ground floor benefits from a practical downstairs toilet.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with its generous proportions, boasting two large double bedrooms and a small double.
Unlike many detached homes in the area, the absence of a small ”box room” ensures that every member of the household enjoys ample space.
Two of the three bedrooms also have built-in wardrobes, ideal for storage. An upgraded shower room with a large walk in shower is also on the first floor.
For those looking to maximize storage, the boiler is situated in the loft, freeing up valuable space in the airing cupboard on the landing.
The exterior features a private driveway providing essential off-road parking, which leads to a single garage perfect for secure storage or parking a vehicle.
The rear garden offers a paved patio and a private lawned area, waiting to be landscaped into a contemporary outdoor retreat.
Situated within walking distance of Ashby's vibrant boutiques, schools, and amenities, this home combines a prime location with unlimited potential.
