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
Some homes are all about the bricks and mortar, while others offer a lifestyle that’s a little harder to find. Starving Bush is very much the latter.
Tucked away along Tir y Fron Lane, this two-bedroom detached bungalow enjoys a wonderfully private setting, with almost 360-degree views across the surrounding countryside and, on a clear day, stretching all the way to Blackpool.
It’s the sort of place where you can sit outside with a morning coffee, watch the changing seasons roll across the landscape and feel a world away from the everyday hustle and bustle.
The living room stretches along the length of the bungalow, creating a wonderfully spacious place to relax and unwind.
Large windows draw in plenty of natural light while making the most of those gorgeous far-reaching views, bringing the countryside right into your everyday living space.
Whether you’re settling down for a quiet evening or watching the changing skies across the landscape, it’s a room where the outlook is every bit as appealing as the space itself.
The kitchen diner is equally well placed to enjoy the setting, with large glazed doors opening up the space and connecting the inside with the outdoors.
There’s room to cook, dine and catch up with family or friends, while the doors invite you to step outside and enjoy the fresh air on warmer days.
It’s a lovely space for everything from relaxed breakfasts to long lunches, with those beautiful surroundings always close by.
With two double bedrooms and the convenience of single-storey living, the bungalow offers a practical layout to suit a range of buyers.
Whether you’re looking to downsize without giving up your outdoor space, escape to somewhere more peaceful or find a home where the setting is just as important as the property itself, Starving Bush offers an appealing alternative to the usual options.
The outside space is a huge part of what makes this home so special.
There’s a paved terrace for outdoor dining, alongside front and side gardens laid to lawn, giving you plenty of room to enjoy the surroundings.
One of the real highlights is the elevated seating area above the house, where you can sit back and take in the outlook across the property and the countryside beyond.
Whether it’s a quiet morning with a coffee, a sunny afternoon with a book or an evening watching the sky change colour, this is a setting that invites you to slow down and make the most of being outdoors.
There’s also excellent practical space, with two double garages providing generous room for vehicles, storage, hobbies or workshop space.
The property benefits from an air source heat pump and solar panels and battery storage, adding modern energy features to a home that feels wonderfully connected to its natural surroundings.
There’s a story to discover here, too. Starving Bush is believed to have links to the area's former pub history, adding another layer of interest to this distinctive home.
The current owners have researched the property's past and intend to leave their findings for the new owners, giving them the chance to uncover more about the house and its place in the local area.
Set in the Pontybodkin countryside, the property offers a rural feel while remaining within reach of the amenities and neighbouring towns of Flintshire.
It’s a location that lends itself to those who enjoy open views, fresh air and a slower pace of life, without feeling completely cut off from everyday essentials.
Starving Bush is more than a two-bedroom bungalow; it’s an opportunity to enjoy a different way of living, with far-reaching views, gardens to explore, generous garage space and a history waiting to be discovered.
And on a clear day, with the view stretching towards Blackpool, it’s easy to see why this is a home that needs to be experienced in person.
