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.

The first floor provides four well-sized bedrooms, with the principal bedroom offering particularly generous proportions at approximately 14'9" x 14'4".
The remaining bedrooms provide flexible accommodation suitable for family members, guests, or home working.
A large family bathroom is fitted with a bath and wash hand basin, with a separate WC located immediately adjacent.
