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 This lovely, spacious four-bedroom home is arranged over three floors, offering flexible and well-balanced accommodation ideal for families or professionals seeking generous living space.
The ground floor comprises a generous entrance hall leading through into a large family room and kitchen that forms the heart of the home, with both dining area and sofa seating areas.
The charcoal Shaker-style kitchen with quartz worktops, and breakfast bar is ideal for family meals and entertaining with pull-out larder and space for a large American-style fridge-freezer.
The kitchen leads onto the landscaped back garden with lawn, raised flower beds, mature olive tree, generous shed and a deck seating area located to enjoy the sunshine.
The remaining room on the ground is the living room at the front of the house offering certified wood-burner and wooden shutters making it a welcoming and relaxing space.
Flooring throughout the ground floor is engineered limed oak creating a sensation of a curated and considered space.
To the first floor, there are two sunny double bedrooms and one large single (currently used as a studio) accessed from the landing, along with a large family bathroom with freestanding cast-iron, claw-footed bath and large walk-in rainforest shower.
The second floor provides an exceptional triple-aspect principal suite with far-reaching views, featuring a master bedroom with its own dressing room and shower room.
Pocket doors can divide the large space allowing for flexible use. Currently set up as study, this space would also be perfect as a nursery or yoga area.
Located in desirable Herne Hill, southeast London, just a few minutes' walk from both Herne Hill and North Dulwich stations with their fast connections to Victoria and London Bridge, the house is in the catchment for the area's outstanding primary and secondary schools.
It is well placed for Brockwell Park and Lido, gyms, independent shops, bars and cafes and the weekly farmers' market.
Seller’s Comments "This house was fully renovated in 2014 and we've absolutely loved bringing our family up here for the last 12 years.
We've made full use of the area's facilities, from the excellent schools, the thriving pubs, the fantastic Brockwell Park and even the local velodrome.
It's been a warm, treasured space in a quiet one-way street.
Special mention should go to the Megaflo water system that has ensured powerful, hot showers at all times - no mean feat with teenagers in the house!" Property Description Disclaimer This is a general description of the property only, and is not intended to constitute part of an offer or contract.
