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
Summary Situated within a highly sought-after estate in Whickham, this three-bedroom semi-detached home occupies one of the largest plots in the immediate area.
Tucked away in the corner of a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking a small green, the property is offered for sale with no onward chain.
In need of renovation, the property presents an exciting blank canvas for buyers looking to create their ideal home.
The exceptionally generous plot offers superb potential to extend substantially, with scope for a loft conversion and/or an additional bedroom above the garage, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Combining a desirable location with outstanding potential to add space and value, this is a rare opportunity for buyers looking for a property they can truly make their own.
Given the size of the plot and the possibilities on offer, early viewing is strongly recommended.
Ground Floor Accessed via a convenient entrance porch with sliding doors, the property opens into a welcoming main hallway.
This central space provides a useful under-stairs storage cupboard accessed from the garage, stairs leading to the first floor, and direct access to both the primary reception room and the kitchen.
The spacious, front-facing living room offers ample space for a variety of furniture arrangements.
A large bay window floods the room with natural light, while the centrally positioned electric fireplace and surround create a warm and inviting focal point.
There is also potential to replace the existing fireplace with a log burner or multi-fuel stove, subject to suitability and any necessary permissions.
Double doors open seamlessly from the living room into a versatile dining area.
This room easily accommodates a large family dining set, though it provides excellent flexibility to be adapted to suit a buyer's individual lifestyle needs.
Further double doors at the rear of the dining room offer direct access out into the garden, perfect for entertaining.
Completing the ground floor, the kitchen is equipped with a practical range of wall and base units paired with contrasting worktops.
It benefits from a highly useful corner storage cupboard and features a secondary external door leading directly outside to the grounds.

The second bedroom is also a comfortable double, offering plenty of room for freestanding furniture.
The third bedroom, a versatile single, provides excellent flexibility to be used as a home office, nursery, or guest room, and features a practical over-stairs storage cupboard to maximise the available floor space.
Completing the upstairs accommodation is the family bathroom, which is currently fitted with a walk-in shower cubicle, a washbasin, and a low-level WC.
An additional corner storage cupboard provides an ideal spot for keeping towels and everyday toiletries neatly tucked away.
