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
Charming apartment set in a listed building in BS1 central Bristol.
The Foster Alms House dates back to 1861 built by Foster and Wood, renowned architects who renovated the building in a Gothic revival style.
This ground floor apartment itself is a relatively recent conversion and offers period features, generous dimensions, and lots of natural light, along with rear views over the famous Christmas Steps.
Additional features include private porch entrance, communal garden and on site chapel. No chain early viewing advised.
Vendor comments: We have very much enjoyed owning this beautiful flat in the historic Three Kings Court for the last nine years.
We bought it originally for our daughter when she started at Bristol University and we have rented it since she left.
It has always rented straight away and it will be an excellent investment as a buy to let or as just a lovely place to live right in the middle of the city centre.
The flat has its own entrance which gives extra privacy and has a shared garden with access to the chapel and courtyards.
