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

Upon entering, a central hallway guides you through the accommodation. The welcoming living room, situated at the front of the property, features an bay window overlooking the front garden.
A red-brick fireplace and built-in cabinetry add character and a focal point to this inviting space. The hallway effortlessly flows into a spacious kitchen-breakfast room.
Equipped with warm wood-effect cabinets with ample space for appliances. The dining section includes a cosy wood-burning stove set within a brick surround, perfect for cooler evenings.
A door leads to a practical lean-to, ideal for additional storage, which also provides access to the terrace.
The kitchen further features a partially glazed door leading directly to the garden and another door to a flexible family room, which could serve equally well as a study, snug, or occasional guest space.
The bungalow comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The main bedroom enjoys pleasant views of the front garden, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear.
A family bathroom completes the internal accommodation. Outside, the property boasts a generous rear garden, primarily laid to lawn, stretching away from a patio area.
A greenhouse area awaits keen gardeners, offering the potential for cultivating plants. The property features a sizable garden, mainly laid to lawn with mature plants.
A generous driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to an attached single garage.
The setting offers the charm and tranquillity of village life while remaining conveniently close to excellent transport links, highly regarded schools, and Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, with a primary school, village shop, pub/restaurant, village hall, and church all close by.
