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
GREENLEAF PROPERTY SERVICES are delighted to introduce this rarely available two bedroom semi-detached bungalow to the market, in a sought-after residential close in Rochester ME1.
Available for the first time since the 1960s and owned by the same family since new, this enviably located property is in need of some updating, however, the opportunity is there for the new owners to create a beautiful family home to their own specification.

We recommend viewing at your earliest convenience to avoid disappointment.
