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
Situated in a desirable area of Pickering, Westgate is a three-bedroom detached bungalow offering a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to create their ideal home.
Occupying a generous plot with spacious gardens, a detached garage, and extensive parking, the property requires modernisation throughout but presents exceptional potential to remodel and add value.
A particular advantage of the property is its flexible internal layout, with no internal load-bearing walls, allowing future owners the freedom to reconfigure the accommodation to suit their individual needs and lifestyle, subject to any necessary approvals.
The current accommodation comprises a kitchen fitted with a range of wall and base units, with space and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher.
The property offers three bedrooms, two of which are comfortable doubles, providing versatile accommodation for families, downsizers, or those requiring a home office.
The lounge is positioned towards the rear of the property, creating a pleasant living space with direct access into the conservatory, which enjoys views over the garden and offers additional reception space.
A family bathroom completes the internal accommodation. Externally, the property benefits from a generous front garden and a multi-vehicle driveway leading to the detached garage.
The garage has been upgraded with an insulated roof and benefits from power and lighting, making it suitable for storage, a workshop, or hobby space.
The rear garden offers an excellent outdoor area with a variety of established plants and patio areas, providing a wonderful blank canvas for a buyer to redesign and personalise to their own tastes.
Westgate presents a rare opportunity to purchase a detached bungalow with significant potential in a popular Pickering location, ideal for those seeking a renovation project with the opportunity to create a bespoke home.
