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
Impressively presented and spacious, four-bedroom, detached family home, with a double garage, driveway and gardens.
Set in a quiet, residential development in the sought-after Midlothian village of Rosewell.
A welcoming entrance hall, finished with light, neutral decor and modern, wood-effect Karndean flooring leads into a living room on the left.
Setting the tone for the rest of the property, the reception room is bright, spacious and tastefully presented.
Next door, a high-tech, streamlined kitchen accommodates casual dining with a central island and opens onto the garden, via French doors.
The kitchen boasts silestone worktops with both under-cabinet and worktop lighting, whilst integrated appliances include an oven, a combi oven and microwave, a five-burner gas hob, a fridge/freezer and a dishwasher.
A washing machine is housed in an adjoining utility room, with access to a WC and garage.
Openly accessed from the kitchen, a versatile, dual-aspect room features a Hwam 3120 wood-burning stove and opens onto the garden decking, via bi-folding doors.
Ample space is available for freestanding lounge furniture as well as a dining table and chairs, if desired.
Upstairs, four flexible double bedrooms continue the generous proportions and tasteful presentation of the living space, with two benefiting from integrated wardrobe storage and two enjoying en-suite shower rooms.
Completing the accommodation, a family bathroom comprises a three-piece suite, a chrome, ladder-style radiator and tiled splash walls.
Rosewell village enjoys a rural setting with its own primary schools, public house, bowling club, and community services.
Popular with commuters, and with ready access to the Edinburgh city bypass, it also benefits from a regular bus service connecting to the city centre.
Secondary schooling and further shopping amenities are available in nearby Penicuik and Bonnyrigg, with an excellent retail park at Straiton offering an extensive range of high-street shopping, including Sainsbury's, asda, Boots, ikea, Costco, and an M&S Simply Food outlet.
