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
This handsome five bedroom home is located in one of St Albans most desirable areas, just over half a mile from the city station and close to Clarence Park.
The property is set back from the road with a driveway providing off-street parking and the front door opens into a beautiful entrance hall with feature fireplace and access to a useful WC.
The main reception room is impressive, with a large bay window bringing in plenty of natural light, and there is a further, sizeable room at the rear of the house currently serving as a dining room.
A more informal reception space beyond the hall with a large window to the side leads through to the kitchen which has been designed to incorporate plenty of storage and a breakfast bar.
The property has a large north-facing conservatory which wraps around the rear, creating a lovely space from which to enjoy views of the garden.
There are four bedrooms on the first floor, all of which can accommodate a double bed, and one of which has the advantage of a spacious en-suite bathroom.
The family bathroom is also on this floor and is an impressive space with a freestanding bath as well as a separate shower.
The fifth bedroom is on the second floor and is an excellent size, there is also a pretty bathroom on this floor as well as useful storage in the eaves space.
The lovely rear garden is laid to lawn and is well stocked with a range of shrubs and trees to the boundaries affording an excellent level of privacy.
Jennings Road is off Clarence Road and is a popular location which is just a short walk from the mainline station where there are fast rail links into central London.
Clarence Park is close by and as are plenty of local amenities, and the shops, bars and restaurants in the city centre are easily reached.
