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
Situated on the third floor of a traditional tenement building, this attractive two-bedroom flat offers generously proportioned accommodation.
The property retains a wealth of appeal, with its traditional character, attractive flooring and exceptional outlook towards one of Edinburgh's most recognisable landmarks, Edinburgh Castle.
Ideally suited to first-time buyers, professionals, couples or investors, this appealing flat presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a home in the heart of the capital, with the potential to personalise to individual taste.
The accommodation is entered via a central hallway, which provides access to the principal apartments.
The bright and spacious reception room offers excellent proportions, with ample space for a range of lounge furniture and additional furnishings, creating a comfortable setting for both relaxing and entertaining.
The fitted kitchen is positioned separately and incorporates a range of wall and base units, providing practical storage and worktop space, together with room for a dining table and chairs, making it ideal for everyday meals.
There are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both offering versatile accommodation to suit a variety of needs.
The principal bedroom provides generous space for bedroom furnishings, while the second bedroom would be equally suited to use as a guest room, home office or additional bedroom.
The rooms to the rear benefit from particularly attractive views towards Edinburgh Castle, adding a distinctive feature to the property.
