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
HOUSE & SON Residential Sales, Lettings, Property Management, Surveys & Valuation. Leading Independent Property Professionals Since 1939.
A rare opportunity to acquire a charming two-bedroom home, dating back to 1895 and carefully maintained by its current owner.
To the front, the property enjoys a mature hedge providing screening from the road, with a driveway to the side leading to the side entrance and gated garden access.
Internally, the home is well-presented throughout.
The cosy front lounge features a working multi fuel burner set into a exposed brick chimney breast, complemented by solid wood flooring, a double-glazed box bay window, and smooth plastered finishes.
To the rear, the kitchen and dining room enjoy a southerly aspect, creating a naturally bright space.
The modern fitted kitchen offers generous storage, an integrated oven with gas hob, space for a freestanding fridge/freezer and washing machine, and contrasting worktops with a complementary splashback.
The dining area accommodates a table and chairs, with storage provided by an understairs cupboard and additional recessed cupboards within the chimney breast. Solid flooring flows through the room.
The adjoining conservatory, which benefits from a south-west aspect-ideal for enjoying the sun through the spring and autumn- features light, power and a solid tiled floor.
From here, there is direct access to the south-facing garden. On the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms.
The principal bedroom features a box bay window and a range of floor-to-ceiling wardrobes, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and also offers a large built-in wardrobe.
The bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite, including a p-shaped bath with glass screen, chrome mixer taps, a T-bar shower, low-level WC, and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit.
Additional features include tiled flooring, part tiled walls, twin chrome towel rails, and a skylight bringing in natural light. The south-facing rear garden is a true highlight.
Well-stocked with a wide variety of mature planting and neat lawn, it offers both colour and character.
A patio directly behind the house provides space for outdoor seating, while to the rear of the garden a fully double-glazed garden room with light and power makes for a versatile retreat.
Local Area Nortoft Road lies within a popular residential part of Bournemouth, well-placed for both convenience and lifestyle.
A wide choice of amenities is close at hand, with supermarkets such as Aldi, Taj, and Makkah Food Store just 0.3 miles away, and Bournemouth town centre within easy reach for shopping, dining, and entertainment.

The award-winning sandy beaches, Bournemouth Pier with its theatre and zipline, and the Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum are all nearby.
