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
We are pleased to welcome to the market this well presented two bedroom semi detached bungalow with off road parking and garage in the popular Portchester location of Kelvin Grove.
The ground floor consists of two bedrooms to the front of the home with built in wardrobes, a modern fitted kitchen and generous lounge room with bi-folding doors that open into the large conservatory.
The conservatory benefits from an LG air conditioning and heating system and more bi-folding doors open onto the decked area directly behind the property with views down the garden.
A modern shower room and utility completes the ground floor accommodation. Via the utility room there is a loft ladder up to the loft room where there is office space.
This property could have a loft conversion subject to local planning consents like so many other homes in the road. Externally there is off road parking to the front.
A shared driveway leads down the side to the garage and side access into the rear garden.
The rear garden is a generous size and is South facing featuring paved walkways and seating areas with various sheds for storage and bbq area.
For more information or to arrange a viewing please call Castles today.
