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
A substantial chalet bungalow occupying an exceptionally large plot within an exclusive enclave of individually styled family homes, offering extensive lateral accommodation and significant scope for refurbishment, extension or redevelopment, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Lands End is an impressive and unusually spacious chalet bungalow, offering approximately 4,135 sq ft (384 sq m) of gross internal area, excluding the detached outbuilding.
The property occupies an exceptionally generous plot, providing considerable privacy, extensive off-street parking and an abundance of outdoor space.
The existing accommodation is arranged principally over the ground floor, with further accommodation at first floor level, creating a genuinely versatile home with excellent potential for modern family living.
The ground floor provides a succession of generous reception and living spaces, bedrooms and ancillary accommodation, while the first floor offers additional bedrooms/offices and a substantial loft area.
The scale and proportions of the property are particularly noteworthy.
Lands End represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home with the space and footprint to create something truly exceptional.
Whilst the existing accommodation could be refurbished and remodelled throughout, the property also lends itself to more comprehensive redevelopment, subject of course to obtaining the relevant planning permissions.
Externally, the unusually large plot provides a generous frontage with parking for several vehicles, together with extensive grounds surrounding the property.
There is also a detached outbuilding incorporating a substantial open space and swimming pool, further adding to the property's appeal and potential.
The property is situated within an exclusive and established enclave of individually styled family homes in Elstree, conveniently positioned for a wide range of local amenities and facilities.
The area is particularly well regarded for its selection of established private and state schools, including the highly regarded Haberdashers' Boys' School and Aldenham Country Park nearby.
For commuters, Elstree & Borehamwood railway station provides regular services towards central London via the Thameslink network, with journeys into London taking approximately 25 minutes.
The property also enjoys convenient road connections, with the A41, A5, M1 and M25 all readily accessible. Elstree Aerodrome is also close by.
