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 ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with its own private garden, an unusual find in a modern Trumpington development.
The property has a particularly spacious open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, two bedrooms and the considerable advantage of an allocated parking space.
The communal entrance is smartly presented, with the apartment itself opening to a central hallway with useful built-in storage.
The principal living space is open-plan and extends across the rear of the property, providing clearly defined areas for relaxing, dining and cooking.
The kitchen is fitted with a contemporary range of wall and base units, integrated appliances and extensive working surfaces, complemented by open shelving and a tiled splashback.
The living and dining areas are generously proportioned, with glazed doors opening directly onto the garden and bringing plenty of natural light into the room.
Both bedrooms sit apart from the main living space. The principal bedroom is a double with built-in wardrobes and its own glazed door to the garden.
Bedroom two would suit well as a bedroom, home office or guest room.
The bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite including a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC, with contemporary tiling and wood-effect finishes.
Outside, the apartment has a private enclosed garden, an unusual and valuable feature for a property of this type.
It is predominantly laid to lawn with a paved seating area immediately outside the living space, established planting and fenced and walled boundaries.
The property also benefits from one allocated parking space within the residents' parking area.
The lease has approximately 237 years remaining, with a current service charge of approximately £3,260 per annum, reviewed annually, and a ground rent of £330 per annum.
Trumpington Meadows works particularly well for those who want straightforward access to Cambridge without giving up easy access to countryside.
Waitrose and Trumpington Park & Ride are close by, while established cycle and guided bus routes provide practical connections towards the city centre, Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus.
Local schooling, everyday services and community facilities are well established within Trumpington.
Perhaps most distinctive is the immediate access to Trumpington Meadows nature reserve, with walking and cycling routes continuing towards Byron’s Pool, Grantchester and the countryside beyond.
It gives the apartment a notably green setting while remaining firmly connected to the city.
For buyers looking for a well-proportioned modern apartment where outlook, outside space and connectivity carry equal weight, this is a home worth considering in person.
