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
A 4 bedroom detached home in a prime BS9 location, with a fabulous open plan kitchen/family space. There is a private & super sunny 50ft x 50ft rear garden.
Within circa 650m of Elmlea School and easy access to Westbury Village.
**Overview** This stunning detached family home is in a prime BS9 location with a lovely sunny garden, is close to Westbury Village & excellent schools, and provides easy access to Clifton & the City Centre.
The property has been sympathetically modernised & renovated over the last few years, which has resulted in a beautiful home.
You enter into a useful porch and from here, into the main hallway which has a real feeling of character helped by its period panelling, the striking staircase and the ceiling coving.
Off the hall you can access the lounge, family room and utility/WC. At the front of the house is the lounge, and this has a cosy feel to it thanks to the log burner which is a lovely focal point.
There is inbuilt cabinetry and the bay window provides plenty of light. The Amtico flooring from the hallway continues through to this room.
Without question, the hub of this beautiful home is the light filled & spacious open plan kitchen/dining/family space.
It's perfect for today's living and with the large doors that open to the garden, it seamlessly links inside & out.
The kitchen has plenty of worktop & cupboards, and the island also doubles up as a breakfast bar. There are fitted appliances including oven & hob, plus dishwasher.
There is ample room for dining furniture and sofas. The utility room is a handy space that houses the washing machine and dryer. There is a WC off here as well.
Upstairs, the landing has a window to the side allowing plenty of light in, and you can access all the bedrooms and the bathroom.
The master bedroom at the front has in built storage, and the bay affords extra space & light.
There are two further double bedrooms, whilst bedroom 4 would also make an excellent study / home office.
The shower room is part of the recent renovations, and is a very contemporary space with a quality finish.
There is scope to extend the house both on the ground floor or into the loft, like many of the properties in the locality have done (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).
**Outside** Due to the location on the street, the plot widens to the rear and is a great family garden.
It measures approx 50ft x 50ft and has a very private feel with plenty of mature shrubs and trees.
Thanks to its elevated and unique positioning, it benefits from both privacy and sunshine throughout the day & evening - perfect for those who value a vibrant and bright outdoor space.
Whether it's morning coffee, sitting & enjoying a book, al fresco dining & evening drinks, or just taking some time to enjoy the sun - this garden is perfect for any of this.
There is scope in one of the corners to add a cabin/summerhouse which could then be used as a home office if required, and a place to extend the summer evenings.
The front garden has parking for 2 cars, and there is a gate to the side that gives access to the rear garden.
**Location** Downs Cote Park is a prime location, tucked off the main road and a short walk to Westbury Village, The Downs and easy access to Clifton & the City Centre.
There are plenty of primary schools nearby including Westbury, Stoke Bishop and Elmlea .
The highly regarded Bristol Free Secondary School is within walking distance, whilst the schools of Badminton, Redmaids and St Ursula’s are all within half a mile.
The village has an array of shops, cafes and pubs, as well as plenty of buses that can take you around the city.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, there is so much on hand including The Downs, Westbury Wildlife Park, Blaise Castle Estate and the popular Canford Park with its excellent play facilities and tennis courts.
Whiteladies Road is within 1.5 miles, Southmead Hospital is under 2 miles away, whilst Cribbs Causeway with its shops, leisure outlets and motorway access is approx. 4 miles.
**We think...** There are very few detached houses in the area, especially those as stylish and well finished as this.
It will suit many people thanks to its excellent location, the high quality finish throughout and the superb family space.
Given its north-westerly aspect, the rear garden is a real gem and offers so much more than you initially think.
Its elevation gives privacy, and an abundance of unexpected sunshine throughout the day and evening - perfect for those who love the outdoors.
It's often said that a house & garden have to be seen to be fully appreciated, but in this situation it really does.
