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
Deerfield is an exceptionally attractive detached family home dating from the 1920s, occupying a magnificent plot of approximately 0.43 acres in the heart of Barnton, one of Edinburgh's most sought-after residential districts.
Enjoying an exceptionally peaceful and private setting backing directly onto the renowned Bruntsfield Links Golfing Society course at Barnton, the property benefits from a wonderful sense of openness, with mature surroundings and vast green space bordering the house in a south-west facing garden.
Its location opposite Lauriston Castle adds to its appeal for further open green space.
The property has been comprehensively upgraded and refurbished by the current owners and is presented in excellent condition throughout, offering a genuine turnkey opportunity for an incoming purchaser.
Traditional character and charm have been carefully retained while being complemented by neutral decor and stylish contemporary interiors, including modern high quality bathrooms.
Practical family accommodation layout and an impressive open-plan kitchen dining room is at the heart of the home. The extra living room off this room also overlooking the garden adds to its appeal.
The master bedroom plus study, or bedroom 2, downstairs allows the property to appeal to buyers at every stage in life.
Approached through a gated entrance, Deerfield sits well back from the road and enjoys a substantial gravel driveway providing extensive off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
To the rear, a beautifully landscaped garden extends away from the house and is largely laid to lawn, framed by mature apple trees, established borders and attractive planting.
A recently laid sandstone patio sits directly outside the double doors of the kitchen and dining room, creating an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and family life while enjoying views across the garden and beyond towards the neighbouring golf course.
