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
New to the market for the first time in over 30 years is this two bedroomed, vastly extended, detached bungalow situated in a quiet road in the heart of Caversham Heights.
The property offers versatile accommodation with plenty of living space including a tucked away office, ideal for working from home.
To the front of the house is a large double bedroom with built in storage and a super living room.
The large kitchen has a range of floor and eye level units, integrated appliances, space for a table and leads to a generous conservatory.
The family bathroom has new flooring and shower over bath and there is an additional separate cloakroom.
The large L-shaped second bedroom has been recently re carpeted and decorated and leads to the office.
The front garden benefits from established planting and provides access to the garage and off-road parking for three cars. The back garden is private, has a patio and is primarily laid to lawn.
Wincroft Road is close to local amenities including a tennis club, park and is close to beautiful South Oxon countryside. It is in catchment for The Heights Primary School.
