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
Set in the heart of Dufftown, this bright ground floor flat enjoys its own private entrance and garden space to both the front and rear.
With a peaceful residential setting just a short walk from local shops and amenities, it’s an ideal opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers or anyone looking for a home they can make their own.
The flat opens into a small entrance vestibule, leading into the main hallway where a patterned white wallpaper with red flecks add a touch of charm.
A radiator on the wall helps keep the space warm and the layout leads you comfortably from room to room.
First off the hall is the kitchen, a good size room with traditional wooden cabinets, crisp white acrylic worktops and neutral-toned tiled splashbacks.
A composite black sink is fitted below the window with plumbing below for a washing machine.
There’s a built-in gas hob with electric oven beneath, while the grey laminate flooring adds a practical finish underfoot.
The kitchen also houses the gas fired boiler which powers the central heating and hot water system. The lounge is a warm and inviting space.
A deep red carpet adds cosiness while a large window allows natural light to flood in.
The standout feature is the stone fireplace with a gas fire fitted inside, an eye-catching centrepiece that adds both character and comfort.
The walls are wallpapered in a split-style finish, with a striped pattern below and a neutral tone above for contrast. The first bedroom is accessed directly from the lounge.
This double room is simply decorated in white with dark wood finishes around the window frame, sill and skirting boards.
A built-in storage cupboard provides handy extra space and a soft grey carpet adds a fresh, modern feel. The second bedroom is also double in size and positioned off the hallway.
With windows on two walls, it’s a particularly bright space. A feature wall of dark wallpaper adds contrast against the otherwise light coloured decor.
A radiator sits near the door for consistent warmth.
The shower room is fitted with a square, white framed cubicle containing an electric shower, alongside a toilet and a wash basin set atop a small storage cupboard.
Finished in neutral tones, it’s a functional space with the potential for updating to suit modern tastes or individual style.
Externally, the property includes its own garden grounds to both the front and rear.
To the rear is a semi-detached block built shed with a corrugated iron roof, ideal for outdoor storage, tools or bikes. There’s also a shared driveway that offers parking space and easy access.
The plot is enclosed by walls and fencing, offering a sense of privacy and security. This property offers solid value and real potential for modernisation and customisation.
