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
THE PROPERTY: Situated in a prominent position within Chesham’s historic Old Town, this attractive period home offers well planned accommodation arranged over three floors.
Upon entering, the sense of space is immediately apparent; what was once two separate rooms has been thoughtfully opened to create an inviting living and dining area, complemented by an attractive stone floor, feature fireplace, and a charming bay window fitted with shutter blinds.
A partially open staircase rises to the first floor, adding to the home’s character and flow.
To one side, a versatile room provides excellent flexibility, currently used as a home office and craft room, it could equally serve as a family room or occasional bedroom.
Beyond the sitting area, a doorway leads into a stylish contemporary kitchen, fitted with a bespoke range of cabinetry and generous work surfaces.
From here, a door opens onto the rear terrace, while an internal door provides access to a convenient cloakroom.
The first floor features a delightful principal bedroom with exposed brickwork, wood flooring, and a sash window overlooking the street.
Opposite the staircase is a useful walk through room, ideal as a study, complete with built in storage and access to a well appointed family bathroom.
A further staircase rises to the second floor, where two additional bedrooms can be found with one in particular enjoying truly beautiful rooftop views across the Old Town and rolling countryside beyond.
OUTSIDE: The property enjoys a charming courtyard garden, enclosed by high brick walls to create a private and sheltered outdoor space. A gate provides direct access to the road.
While there is no private parking, unrestricted parking is available to the front, and local residents may apply for permits at the nearby Water Meadow Car Park.
SITUATION: The property is conveniently situated less than half a mile from Chesham Town centre and its Metropolitan Line station.
Local amenities include a gym with tennis courts and an outdoor heated swimming pool, while the town offers a mix of high street and independent shops, including Waitrose and Sainsbury’s.
For commuters, regular Metropolitan Line services provide easy access to Aldgate, and road connections to London and beyond are straightforward via the A41 or the M25 at Chorleywood.
The area is also renowned for its excellent schools, both primary and secondary, including Chesham Grammar and Dr Challoner’s Boys and Girls Schools.
