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
An attractive and well-presented four-bedroom house, occupying an elevated position on Springers Hill and enjoying a pleasant outlook towards the surrounding countryside.
The property offers generous and versatile accommodation, together with a substantial rear garden, driveway parking, double garage and a self-contained annex above.
The front door opens into a welcoming hallway, with the sitting room situated to the left.
This is a comfortable room with a south-west facing bay window to the front, a log burner positioned in the corner and a further door opening directly onto the rear garden.
To the right of the hallway is the large kitchen/dining room, which forms the main living space of the house.
The kitchen is fitted with traditional country-style units, wooden worktops and a red range cooker, with stone tiling underfoot.
A central island incorporates a breakfast bar, whilst there is ample space for a substantial dining table and chairs.
Triple-aspect windows provide plenty of natural light and there is a further door leading directly to the garden.
A useful boot room and utility area adjoin the kitchen, with additional storage and a further door providing access to the garden. A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor are three double bedrooms and a further single bedroom, currently arranged as a dressing room with a good amount of fitted storage.
This room would equally lend itself to use as a home office, study or fourth bedroom if required.
The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room and enjoys far-reaching views across the surrounding rooftops and tree-lined landscape.
The remaining two bedrooms are both well-proportioned doubles. The family bathroom is bright and modern, with a bath and separate shower, together with the usual wash hand basin and WC.
OUTSIDE The property is approached via steps to the front and side, with established borders and enclosed areas of garden surrounding the house.
The rear garden is a particularly good size and has been well maintained, with areas of lawn, paved seating areas and mature planting.
A patio adjoining the house provides an excellent area for outside dining, whilst the elevated position gives the garden a pleasant sense of space and an outlook over the surrounding area.
A further side patio takes advantage of the property's position, with views across rooftops and towards the surrounding tree-lined countryside.
To the side of the property is driveway parking for several vehicles, leading to a substantial double garage.
The garage benefits from power and lighting, an electric up-and-over door and useful loft-style storage.
Above the garage is a self-contained annex, which has its own independent access and comprises an entrance area, storage cupboard, open-plan studio-style living accommodation with fitted kitchen and a separate shower room.
To the rear is a small decked seating area, which could be arranged for the private use of the annex.
The space offers considerable flexibility and could be used for visiting family, a home office, teenage accommodation or potentially as additional accommodation for income generation, subject to any necessary consents.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Gas central heating. Mains electricity, water and drainage.
