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.

The west facing terrace is accessed from the kitchen, reception hall and drawing room and provides the perfect place to enjoy the outlook with areas of lawn and flower borders planted with mature shrubs, trees and perennial plants.
