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
Substantial detached four bedroom house with lovely views to the rear over open countryside.
The Property Number four Townsend Way is one of five houses built in the1990’s to take full advantage of its lovely position overlooking open countryside on the north side of Bridport.
The property remains in good order throughout, but is now in need of some updating. Once completed it will make an unusually good well balanced family home.
Accommodation The accommodation is conventionally arranged around a spacious hallway on the ground floor and a spacious landing on the first floor.
The sitting room stretches along the front of the house with a bay window to one side, with the focal point of a fireplace equipped with a gas fire to one end.
Both the kitchen and the dining room lie along the rear of the property and lend themselves, subject to obtaining the necessary building consents, to being combined to create one large open space.
Behind the dining room, doors lead through to a conservatory laid to a ceramic tile floor with doors out onto the gardens.
The kitchen is equipped with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units and cupboards, with work surfaces over, and integral appliances that include an electric double oven and a gas hob.
To one side of the kitchen there is a separate utility area with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and within the kitchen area there is space for an everyday breakfast table.
In addition downstairs there is a useful cloakroom, while upstairs there are four good bedrooms, the principal of which has an ensuite shower room, with the three remaining bedrooms sharing a family bathroom.
The property has UPVC double glazing, a contemporary boiler replaced in 2019 and solar hot water heating designed to keep the overall running costs of the house down.
Outside To the front of the property, there is a gated entrance through to a driveway that provides parking for a number of cars and access to the double garage.
The double garage has twin up and over doors, one of which is an electric remotely-operated one.
To the left-hand side of the driveway there is a formal area of lawn edged by mature herbaceous planting.
The gardens to the rear are fully enclosed and very private, with a substantial area of paved terrace adjoining the house that makes an excellent outside entertaining area during the summer months.
The gardens are for the most part laid to lawn and again edged by mature herbaceous planting. To the left-hand side of the house, there is useful garden shed and bin storage area.
Situation Bridport is a bustling and vibrant market town which has a history of rope making and is now a gateway to the Jurassic World Heritage coastline at nearby West Bay.
It has a variety of independent shops, supermarkets, public houses and restaurants catering for a range of tastes and excellent arts and music events.
Communication links are good with road links along the A35 and mainline stations at Maiden Newton, Dorchester, Axminster and Crewkerne.
