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 delightful family home is ideally situated in a quiet cul-de-sac, with countryside walks on your doorstep.
Downstairs, as you enter the property you are greeted by the welcoming hallway, with a useful cloakroom just off, and access through to the main living area.
A wonderfully bright space with ample room for a dining room table and number of sofas, there are also sliding doors opening out to the rear garden.
From here, the contemporary kitchen, extended to the rear, is spacious and well appointed with a range of built in appliances.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two of which are generous doubles and the main bedroom has a number of built in wardrobes, as well as a modern family bathroom.
To the front of the property there is a lawn either side of a pathway leading up to the front door, whilst the good size rear garden has both a patio and another lawned area.
Sherwoods Rise is a quiet cul-de-sac at the top of Piggottshill Lane and is positioned towards the south side of Harpenden.
This location provides easy access to the town centre and station, which are both no more than a 20 minute walk away.
