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
Tucked away just a short stroll from the heart of St Michael's and within easy reach of Tenterden, this detached bungalow offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy life within a thriving village community while creating a home to suit modern tastes.
In need of updating and modernisation, the well-proportioned accommodation includes: An enclosed porch and entrance hall, kitchen, bathroom, two bedrooms, a generous living room with a conservatory to the rear overlooking the surprisingly large garden, together with a prefab garage and driveway parking.
Set within a deceptively generous plot, the property offers excellent scope to update and personalise the existing accommodation, while also presenting exciting potential to extend, subject to the necessary consents.
Comfortable to enjoy from the outset yet offering plenty of opportunity to enhance over time, it is a home that combines immediate practicality with exciting long term potential.
Offered to the market with no onward chain, it is ready for its next chapter.
