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
Displaying a quite outstanding level of appointment throughout which includes owned solar panels, beautifully appointed Living/Dining Kitchen with underfloor heating to the Lower Ground Floor.
This fabulous family home was designed and created to meet the needs and requirements of our current Vendors and we feel any discerning family purchaser seeking a well proportioned and versatile property, will not fail to be impressed by this beautiful home.

As such we would strongly recommend that any purchaser considering a property of this nature contact our office to arrange a viewing without delay.
