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
Description A stylish one-bedroom duplex flat with its own private courtyard, tucked into one of Bow's most sought-after stretches of Roman Road.
Set across the ground and lower ground floors, the property opens into a bright, open-plan kitchen and living space, where skylights bring in natural light throughout the day.
It's a comfortable spot for cooking, entertaining, or simply relaxing at home.
Downstairs, a generously proportioned double bedroom offers a peaceful space with views over the private courtyard, alongside a well-finished bathroom.
The courtyard itself is a real highlight - a genuinely private outdoor space that's hard to come by in this part of East London, perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks outside.
Roman Road is a well-loved and well-connected address.
The historic Roman Road Market, running for over 150 years, sits right on the doorstep, alongside a great selection of independent cafes, bakeries and pubs.
Bow Road, Bow Church DLR and Mile End stations are all within easy walking distance, offering fast links into the City, Canary Wharf and Central London, while Victoria Park and the Regent's Canal towpath are both close by for green space and weekend walks.
The property is brick-built with gas central heating, mains water and electricity, and benefits from flood defence measures already in place.
The lease permits subletting and running a business from home, making this a flexible option for owner-occupiers and investors alike.
Offered chain-free, this is a well-presented and characterful home in one of East London's most popular neighbourhoods - early viewing is recommended.
