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
This substantial five-bedroom semi-detached period home occupies a convenient position close to the heart of the ever popular Chellaston area of Derby.
Offering generous and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, the property beautifully combines modern improvements with a wealth of traditional features, creating a characterful yet practical home ideally suited for a growing family.
A particularly impressive rear garden further enhances the property, providing a fantastic outdoor space for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the summer months.
The ground floor begins with a welcoming entrance hall, where Minton floor tiles immediately set the tone and highlights the character found throughout the property.
An understairs cupboard provides useful additional storage, while access leads down to the cellar, offering further valuable space.
To the left of the hallway, the original lounge and separate dining room have been opened up to create a superb open plan living and entertaining space.
Both rooms retain their traditional fireplaces, while the lounge area benefits from a charming bay window and wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting focal point.
To the right, the modern breakfast kitchen provides an excellent range of worktop and cupboard space, with room for appliances - a large pantry adds further practicality.
A traditional chimney breast has been cleverly incorporated to house the range cooker, creating an attractive feature and focal point within the kitchen.
An inner hall provides access to a modern fitted shower room, separate utility room and a bright rear-facing conservatory, which overlooks the garden and offers a pleasant additional reception space, with twin French doors opening directly out onto the decked terrace - creating a seamless connection with the garden.
To the first floor, an extended landing provides access to five bedrooms.
Three are excellent size double bedrooms, each benefiting from built-in wardrobes, while a further well proportioned double bedroom provides additional flexibility.
The fifth bedroom is a single bedroom currently used as a dressing room, but would also make an ideal nursery, home office or study. A modern family bathroom completes the first floor accommodation.
Outside, the property is set back behind a low brick wall, with a well maintained block-paved driveway providing ample off road parking for several vehicles.
The driveway extends alongside the property and benefits from gated access to the rear garden - undoubtedly one of the property's key features.
A generous decked seating area extends from the conservatory before leading onto a long lawn, with established planting creating attractive borders.
An additional area of artificial lawn has been created with plumbing and power available for a hot tub.
Towards the end of the garden, a timber summer house provides a wonderful space to relax and enjoy the garden, while two useful brick-built storage rooms add further practicality.
Situated on Derby Road within the popular Derby suburb of Chellaston, the property is conveniently positioned for a range of local shops, schools and everyday amenities, while Derby City Centre and the surrounding road network are also within easy reach.
The location is therefore well suited to families and commuters alike.
Internal viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate the generous accommodation, period character and fantastic garden this impressive family home has to offer.
