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
**guide price £240,000 - £260,000** **be sure to watch the video to see everything this home has to offer** Victorian Character. Modern Foundations. Finish the Vision.
A substantial four-bedroom Victorian townhouse offering almost 1,500 sq ft of accommodation, where much of the expensive, behind-the-scenes renovation work has already been completed, leaving the next owner with the exciting opportunity to finish and personalise the home to their own taste.
Every successful renovation has a stage where a property can appear less finished than when it was first purchased. This is one of those homes.
The current owners have invested considerable time and money into the essential structural and infrastructure works that many buyers never see but almost always end up paying for.
The result is a property with much of the difficult groundwork already undertaken, allowing the next owner to concentrate on creating the finished aesthetic rather than starting from scratch.
The accommodation retains all the proportions expected of a classic Victorian home.
The principal reception room stretches to almost 30 feet in length with impressive ceiling heights, while a separate dining room provides additional family living space.
To the rear, the generous kitchen has already been transformed into a practical contemporary room and opens naturally towards the garden.
A new ground floor shower room has been created and is currently awaiting its final fit-out and finishing.
Upstairs are four genuinely generous bedrooms-there are no compromised box rooms here-together with the family bathroom.
Several of the bedrooms remain at varying stages of refurbishment, offering a blank canvas for the incoming owner to complete exactly as they wish while preserving the attractive exposed brick features and Victorian proportions.
Outside, the property enjoys a particularly good-sized rear garden, providing excellent space for families, entertaining or further landscaping.
A renovation where the expensive work has already begun Although buyers will understandably notice the cosmetic works still required, it is important to recognise the value of what has already been completed.
Rather than simply decorating, the current owners have concentrated on the fundamental improvements that are typically the most disruptive and costly parts of any renovation project.
This creates an excellent opportunity to acquire a substantial Victorian home where much of the "go backwards to go forwards" work has already been undertaken, leaving the next owner free to complete the project in line with their own design vision.
Situated close to Rushden town centre, the property also enjoys easy access to the excellent shopping, leisure and dining facilities at Rushden Lakes, highly regarded local schools and convenient commuter links, with Wellingborough railway station approximately 15 minutes away providing direct services into London.
