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 charming and contemporary one-bedroom cottage, offering stylish open-plan accommodation and a highly convenient position within close proximity of Bicester town centre.
The heart of the home is the spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, creating a bright and sociable space ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.
The modern, well-equipped kitchen complements the character of the property, while attractive engineered oak flooring runs throughout the main living accommodation.
The property further comprises a well-proportioned double bedroom and a modern shower room.
It has been well maintained by the current owner and benefits from secondary double glazing together with attractive built-in shutter blinds.
A particularly impressive feature is the substantial loft space, which is fully boarded and illuminated.
Measuring over 8m x 6m with a maximum height of more than 2.6m, it provides an exceptional amount of storage and may also offer exciting potential to create additional accommodation, subject to obtaining the necessary planning and building consents.
The Garden Quarter is one of Bicester’s most distinctive residential developments, thoughtfully created through the regeneration of the former RAF Bicester accommodation site.
Combining beautifully restored period buildings with contemporary new homes, the development offers a unique blend of heritage, character and modern living, all set within attractive landscaped grounds.
The development enjoys a peaceful setting with mature trees, open green spaces and a number of communal gardens, creating an attractive environment for residents to enjoy.
Its location also provides excellent access to Bicester Heritage, the internationally recognised centre for historic motoring, while nearby footpaths and countryside walks offer further opportunities for outdoor recreation.
Families benefit from a choice of nearby schools, Southwold Primary School and The Cooper School, all within easy reach.
Everyday amenities are conveniently located at the nearby Southwold shopping parade, home to a Tesco Express, takeaway outlets and other essential services, while Bicester town centre, Pioneer Square and the world-renowned Bicester Village offer an extensive selection of supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities.
The Garden Quarter is ideally positioned for commuters, with Bicester North railway station less than two miles away, providing direct services to London Marylebone and Birmingham.
Excellent road connections via the A41, A4421 and M40 make travel to Oxford, Milton Keynes and beyond straightforward.
Offering a unique combination of historic character, contemporary homes, landscaped surroundings and excellent transport links, The Garden Quarter has become one of Bicester’s most desirable developments, appealing to professionals, families and those seeking something a little different from a traditional modern estate.
Ideally positioned for Bicester town centre, the property enjoys convenient access to local shops, restaurants and amenities, as well as both Bicester North and Bicester Village railway stations.
This excellent connectivity makes the cottage particularly appealing to commuters, first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors. EPC Rating: C Parking - Allocated Parking
