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
Having been comprehensively refurbished by the current owners, this home on Everglade Close is a home that is ready to move straight into, with modern, neutral décor throughout and significant attention given to the underlying infrastructure, including replacement plumbing and wiring.
The result is a stylish yet practical family home that combines generous proportions with a contemporary finish.
The property occupies a particularly peaceful position within Everglade Close, a small cul-de-sac where homes are well spaced and there is a genuine sense of community.
It is the sort of setting where children can play and neighbours know one another, whilst still being exceptionally well placed for the amenities of Hartley and nearby Longfield.
Approached via a landscaped, low-maintenance front garden, the property has an attractive frontage with a driveway providing useful off-road parking.
To the side is the detached double tandem garage, which is approximately 31' in length – offering space for two vehicles one behind the other, or fantastic storage/workshop potential.
Inside, the ground floor provides an impressive amount of flexible living space.
The heart of the home is the large kitchen/dining/breakfast room, measuring approximately 7.25m x 6.80m (23'9" x 22'3").
This is a fantastic family and entertaining space, with ample room for a substantial dining table and informal seating, while the adjoining utility room provides a practical area for laundry and household tasks.
Also ideal for those with children and pets. There are then three further reception spaces, giving the house a level of versatility that is increasingly difficult to find.
The family room, sitting room and playroom can be configured according to the needs of the incoming owners – whether that means separate formal and informal living areas, a home office, children's space or simply additional entertaining rooms.
A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms.
The master bedroom measures approximately 5.21m x 4.16m (17'1" x 13'7"), whilst the remaining bedrooms offer excellent flexibility for children, guests or home working.
The first floor is further complemented by a family bathroom and an en-suite to the master bedroom, making the layout particularly well suited to family life.
To the front is a landscaped, low-maintenance garden, creating an attractive first impression without demanding extensive upkeep.
To the rear, the garden provides a lovely balance of a paved patio and a section of lawn, offering plenty of space for outdoor dining, entertaining and children's play.
It is a garden that is genuinely family-sized without being difficult to manage, with sufficient room for children and pets to enjoy, while the side access adds considerable practicality for everyday use, gardening and moving larger items between the front and rear of the property.
Hartley is a particularly popular village for those looking for a strong community atmosphere alongside good access to everyday amenities.
There is a useful selection of facilities within Hartley itself, including local shops, a Post Office, a church, a Co-Op, an off licence, and two well regarded primary schools.
The village also benefits from its own community facilities and the Hartley Country Club, which provides sporting and social opportunities.
For wider shopping and commuter requirements, Longfield is close by, offering further shops and services together with a mainline railway station.
The surrounding road network also provides convenient access towards the A2, M25 and wider Kent and London, whilst Ebbsfleet International and Bluewater are both readily accessible by road.
Perhaps most importantly, Hartley retains a village feel and strong sense of community, while being close enough to Longfield (station offers services to London Victoria in just over 30 minutes) and the wider North Kent area to provide everything needed for day-to-day family life.
It is this combination of a quieter residential environment, countryside surroundings, local amenities and connectivity that continues to make Hartley such a sought-after place to live.
Tenure: Freehold Council Tax: Band G Accommodation: 2,025 sq ft Garage: Approximately 27.7 sq m / 298 sq ft Parking: Private driveway and detached double-length tandem garage In all, this property on Everglade Close represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial four-bedroom detached home in one of Hartley's quieter settings, which has been comprehensively refurbished by its current owners and offers a particularly appealing combination of space, style, practicality and community.
