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
Nestled within the ever-popular Channels development, this beautifully presented three-bedroom family home has been thoughtfully upgraded throughout, offering stylish, contemporary living ready for its next owners to move straight into.
Step inside and you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hall, setting the tone for the quality found throughout the home.
To the front, the separate lounge provides the perfect retreat to relax and unwind, complete with a sleek, bespoke media wall creating a modern focal point for cosy evenings in.
To the rear, the impressive kitchen/dining room has been designed with both everyday family life and entertaining in mind.
Finished to a high specification, it features integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, gas hob and oven, all of which will remain.
Electric blinds add a touch of luxury, while French doors open onto the beautifully landscaped rear garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.
Completing the ground floor is a generous downstairs w/c and a practical under-stairs storage cupboard. Upstairs, you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms.
The third bedroom is currently utilised as a home office but could easily be returned to a spacious single bedroom.
The second bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, which can remain if desired, while the impressive principal bedroom offers built-in wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room.
A modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, with elegant shutters fitted throughout both the ground and first floors, all included in the sale.
Externally, the larger-than-average rear garden has been professionally landscaped to create an attractive, ultra-low-maintenance outdoor space, ideal for relaxing or entertaining and an electric awning controlled via a remote.
To the front, the property offers off-road parking for three vehicles, while the former carport has been enhanced with electric roller shutters to create a secure garage.
Additional loft-style storage within the garage provides valuable extra space.
