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
John Payne Estate Agents are delighted to present this beautifully presented and thoughtfully extended three-bedroom semi-detached family home, occupying a peaceful position within the highly sought-after cul-de-sac of Highcombe Close.
Lovingly owned, meticulously maintained and sympathetically modernised by the current owner for over 40 years, this exceptional home seamlessly blends character, generous living space and modern practicality, making it an ideal purchase for growing families.
Set behind an attractive frontage, the property enjoys excellent kerb appeal with a substantial driveway providing ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, complemented by a neatly maintained artificial lawn for year-round ease of maintenance.
Retaining its attractive 1930s character, the home also benefits from full double glazing throughout, enhancing both comfort and energy efficiency.
Stepping inside, a bright and welcoming entrance hall immediately creates a warm first impression.
The accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to provide flexible living space suitable for modern family life.
To the front of the property is an elegant reception room, centred around a large bay window which allows natural light to pour into the room, creating a bright yet cosy living area.
To the rear, the second reception room, where large double doors open directly onto the patio, creating a wonderful connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
Whether hosting friends, enjoying family gatherings or simply relaxing with a morning coffee, this area is perfectly suited to modern living.
The rear extension has transformed the property into a superb family home, creating a spacious kitchen with an excellent range of fitted units, generous worktop space and ample room for appliances.
Designed with both practicality and entertaining in mind, the kitchen flows effortlessly into. The beautifully landscaped rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features.
Extending to approximately 60ft and enjoying a highly desirable south-westerly aspect, it benefits from sunshine throughout much of the day and into the evening.
A lower patio offers an ideal space for outdoor dining, while a further raised terrace provides an additional entertaining area perfect for summer barbecues and social occasions.
The remainder of the garden is predominantly laid to lawn that provides both privacy and a peaceful setting.
The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, all beautifully presented in neutral décor.
The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and enjoys excellent natural light, while the second double bedroom offers equally generous accommodation with ample space for wardrobes and additional furniture.
The third bedroom provides excellent versatility and would make an ideal nursery, child's bedroom, guest room or home office.
Completing the accommodation is a stylish four-piece family bathroom, beautifully finished with a luxurious roll-top bath, separate walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC.
Designed to create a calming, spa-like atmosphere, this impressive bathroom perfectly complements the quality found throughout the rest of the home. The location is equally impressive.
Highcombe Close is a quiet residential cul-de-sac, ideally positioned for families and commuters alike.
Mottingham Station is within easy reach, just 0.5 mile away, offering regular services into London Bridge, Charing Cross, Cannon Street and Waterloo East, while excellent bus routes provide convenient access to Eltham, Bromley, Chislehurst and surrounding areas.
Residents are also well served by a range of everyday amenities, with Lidl, M&S Simply Food and the shops and cafés of Mottingham Village all within walking distance.
For larger shopping and leisure facilities, both Eltham and Bromley town centres are just a short drive away.
Families will particularly appreciate the excellent choice of nearby schools, including the highly regarded Eltham College, alongside Eltham College Junior School, St Vincent's Catholic Primary School and Ravensworth Primary School, all of which have been rated 'Good' by Ofsted.
