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
There’s something special about a home that just feels right and this one delivers from the very first step inside.
Positioned to enjoy uninterrupted views across open fields, this beautifully kept four-bedroom detached home (the ever-popular Copwood design by Persimmon Homes) offers a rare mix of calm surroundings and thoughtfully designed living space.
The layout flows effortlessly with a bright kitchen and dining space forms the hub of the home, somewhere that naturally becomes the backdrop to busy mornings, relaxed evenings, and everything in between.
A separate utility room keeps the practicalities tucked away, while the lounge offers a cosy retreat when it’s time to slow things down.
Upstairs, four generous bedrooms with the principal bedroom benefitting from it's own ensuite, while a well-appointed family bathroom serves the rest of the home with ease.
Outside, you’ll find a garden that’s enough space to entertain, play, or simply enjoy along with a driveway and garage.
Located on the outskirts of Chelmsford with open countryside views right on your doorstep, yet you’re only a short distance from the buzz of the City centre, with its shops, restaurants, and fast rail links into London.
It’s a location that works just as well for weekday commuting as it does for weekend unwinding.
