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
Enjoy being a proud part of Chislehurst history in this fine Grade II listed semi-detached cottage.
Originally 18th century with 19th century extensions, the red brick elevation and white paintwork beneath a tiled roof create a handsome façade.
A beautiful interior includes two large bedrooms, a gorgeous family bathroom, four reception rooms and an outstanding kitchen.
Located in a formerly rural part of Chislehurst, known for its traditional older residential properties near The Sydney Arms, this area features a number of historic cottages, creating a most attractive setting just across from Scadbury Park Nature Reserve.
A low walled garden and gravel driveway form the frontage to the cottage, with the front door and side gates painted in a heritage blue colour.
Internally, a carefully curated, low-key modern style has been blended with a wealth of period character features to create a charming interior.
The welcoming entrance hall to the side features attractive stripped floorboards, clean white walls, a large window and built-in cabinetry forming a window seat.
The study is located to the left where the fireplace adds considerable style.
The sitting room lies straight ahead, featuring oak beams and floorboards, an exposed brick wall, a fireplace, a traditional style radiator and built-in cabinetry.
This room opens into a family room where a large fireplace takes centre stage, and a flagstone tiled floor echoes the character of the period property.
The kitchen, newly installed in 2025, has a modern farmhouse feel with a comprehensive range of soft cream Shaker-style cabinets topped with wooden work surfaces.
A Belfast sink complements the design, while roof lights allow natural light to flood in.
The dining area is positioned to the rear, with a window overlooking the garden and a barn-style door providing access outside.
The large principal bedroom is located on the first floor with two windows overlooking the front. A stunning original fireplace steals the show, with exposed beams adding further character.
The family bathroom, also installed in 2025, includes a claw-foot freestanding bath, a traditional pedestal basin, half wall panelling and stylish floor tiling.
Bedroom two occupies the second floor and extends to a generous 192 sq ft. The 96 ft garden is delightful, with a central lawn bordered by mature trees and shrubs.
A charming cottage-style terrace sits to the side, and a barn provides useful storage.
