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
An elegant, chain-free detached residence of remarkable character, set within the highly desirable Oulton Street.
This substantial five-bedroom home effortlessly blends generous family living with period charm, offering beautifully proportioned accommodation arranged over three impressive floors.
Upon entering, a welcoming and spacious entrance hall sets the tone, providing access to two refined reception rooms.
The bay-fronted sitting room is rich in character, featuring a striking fireplace as its focal point, while the adjoining dining room is bright, airy and perfectly suited to both everyday living and formal entertaining.
The accommodation flows seamlessly through to a well-sized kitchen/breakfast room, complemented by a separate utility room and a convenient ground-floor cloakroom.
The first floor hosts three generous double bedrooms, served by a truly unique and expansive family bathroom, complete with a bath and shower over, a separate walk-in shower cubicle, and his-and-hers sinks — a rare and impressive feature.
Rising to the top floor, two further double bedrooms are found alongside an additional family bathroom, offering excellent flexibility for growing families, guests or home-working arrangements.
Externally, the property enjoys a fully enclosed, lawned garden with ample space for sheds or greenhouses and an ideal setting for al fresco dining.
To the front, a brick-weave driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles.
While the property would benefit from some modernisation, it presents a superb opportunity to enhance and personalise a home of genuine substance and heritage.
Offered chain free, this is a rare chance to acquire a distinguished family residence in a sought-after location.
