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
A characterful five bedroom family home on a popular road.
Description Set on the ever-popular Melody Road, this beautifully arranged five-bedroom family home spans three spacious floors and offers a unique, characterful layout with excellent entertaining space and a private garden.
The ground floor welcomes you into a large, elegant reception room, framed by a wide bay window that floods the space with natural light.
Period features abound, including wooden flooring, twin fireplaces with handsome mantelpieces, and bespoke alcove shelving.
To the rear, there’s ample room for formal dining, with French doors opening to a charming patio — a perfect spot for al fresco meals or quiet morning coffee.
Double doors lead into a versatile family room, ideal as a playroom, study, or secondary sitting room, providing an intimate retreat away from the main reception and kitchen.
The heart of the home lies in the generous kitchen, designed in a classic country style with tiled flooring, an Aga, and a central island offering plenty of prep and storage space.
Integrated appliances and built-in banquette seating make the space both practical and sociable, while doors open directly onto the garden.
The garden itself is a delight, with mature planting, paved seating areas, and a large shed to the rear.
The first floor hosts three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a bright second bedroom with a bay window and extensive built-in storage.
All bedrooms on this level are served by a smartly presented family bathroom.
The principal suite occupies the upper floor, a peaceful retreat with excellent storage, a four-piece en suite bathroom, and access to a private balcony with views over Melody Road.
A fifth bedroom and additional storage complete this floor. Location Melody Road is a tree lined road situated very close to the open expanses of Wandsworth Common Westside (500ft).
The surrounding roads boast many useful local shops, a large Sainsbury's can be found in the Southside Centre (0.5 miles) along with a Waitrose and a multi screen cinema.
Transport is good with Wandsworth Town mainline station (0.6 miles) and numerous bus routes close at hand.
There are a variety of schools of local repute both private and state, including Allfarthing School, Broomwood School and St. Faith's and many good nurseries.
For young children and families, Wandsworth offers a wide variety of entertainment options, including Clip 'n Climb, the Wandle Recreation centre, Wandsworth library and the Gravity Max in Southside Shopping Centre.
