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
At the end of this quiet close on the Chipstead / Coulsdon border, this excellent modern house was one of just five houses built by Charles Church in 1992.
Available for the first time since new and with no onward chain, the house has a spacious design and particularly good size plot with West facing gardens.
The renowned quality housebuilder, Charles Church built just five detached houses in this close and it is easy to see why our clients were quick to reserve this particular house.
The only one to be built on this side of the close, the property enjoyed more space in its larger plot with a Westerly aspect at the rear.
The accommodation is equally impressive, originally designed as a five bedroom house and instead arranged with four double bedrooms, two have ensuites in addition to the family bathroom.
On the ground floor, there are three generous living rooms arranged around a central hall and a conservatory was added.
The oak fitted kitchen includes appliances and there is a separate breakfast room with sliding door to the garden.
Enjoying natural privacy, the mature garden is terraced and offers many spots to sit and enjoy the tranquillity and there is a large terrace, ideal for those who like to host.
The broad and deep frontage has plenty of space for parking several cars, boat, caravan in addition to the detached double garage.
Situated at the end of this quiet close off Starrock Road, the property has excellent access to everyday amenities.
The M23/M25 intersection is within a few minutes’ drive, bringing Gatwick in 20 minutes, Heathrow in 40 minutes and the coastal ports and the Eurotunnel also within easy reach.
Coulsdon South Station is within walking distance and has faster direct rail services (21 minutes) into London.
Both Coulsdon and Banstead Village have extensive shopping; both also include a Waitrose supermarket whilst Reigate is also easily reached.
The area has a choice of excellent schooling such as Chipstead Valley Primary, Whitgift, Royal Alexandra and Albert, Reigate Grammar, Dunnotar, Caterham School and The Hawthorns School.
Nearby, Chipstead Village has unspoilt rural village charm with its pretty Norman church, village pond, local pubs and annual flower show and fete.
Remarkably, the village caters for almost every sport including clubs for golf, rugby, cricket, football, tennis and bowls and it also forms part of the course for the annual London to Brighton cycle race.
The surrounding area also has a wide choice of pubs, restaurants and recreational pursuits.
