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
McEwan Fraser Legal is delighted to present this beautifully finished three-bedroom semi-detached chalet villa, located in the highly sought-after residential area of Blackhall, just a short stroll from the local primary school.
The property boasts landscaped front and rear gardens, a private driveway, and a sunny southwest-facing rear garden.
There is also valid Planning Permission (23/02880/FUL, active until August 2026) for a rear extension, remodelled porch, and revised dormer window.
The accommodation begins with a side porch leading into an inviting entrance hall with exposed floorboards and neutral décor throughout.
The generously proportioned front-facing sitting room is bright and spacious, easily accommodating a large suite and offering flexibility for entertaining.
A contemporary kitchen designed by Archispek features a full range of base and wall-mounted units, quality integrated appliances, a Belfast sink, and granite work surfaces, complemented by a separate utility room with laundry facilities.
At the rear, a large conservatory provides direct access to the garden and creates a versatile space for dining or entertaining.
The ground floor also includes a good-sized bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a family bathroom with partial tiling, a contemporary three-piece suite, and a separate shower.
Upstairs, the landing offers eaves storage and leads to two further double bedrooms, including a stunning dual-aspect master bedroom with integrated wardrobes.
Further benefits include gas central heating, double glazing, and recently upgraded insulation, helping to create a cozy and cost-effective home.
Externally, the driveway provides convenient off-street parking and leads to the detached single garage with power and lighting.
The mature rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped by Twig Garden Design in their 'wild meadow' with a variety of shrubs and plants, creating a private, tranquil outdoor space.
This property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a family home in a prime location, combining charm, functionality, and significant potential.
