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
Set in a sought-after residential position with attractive open outlooks to the rear, this well-presented three-bedroom bungalow offers comfort and practicality, making it an appealing choice for a wide range of buyers whilst remaining conveniently placed for local amenities and transport links.
You are welcomed into the entrance hall, which provides access to all principal rooms along with a distinctive spiral staircase leading to the third bedroom located within the loft space.
To the rear of the property, the lounge is a generous and light-filled space, enjoying natural light through a box bay window and boasting stunning open field views, creating an ideal place to relax and unwind.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets with marble-effect work surfaces over, also benefitting from those same countryside views, making it both a pleasant and practical space for everyday use.
The property offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, both complete with wardrobes, providing comfortable accommodation and excellent storage. A well-presented bathroom completes the main living space.
A particular highlight of this home is the third bedroom within the loft, accessed via the spiral staircase from the entrance hall.
This excellent-sized and versatile space enjoys an abundance of natural light from several Velux skylights and now benefits from building regulations approval, allowing it to be formally classed as a bedroom.
It would suit a variety of uses, including a principal bedroom, guest suite or home office, depending on individual needs.
Externally, to the front of the property there is a paved driveway and lawned garden, with the driveway continuing along the side to a detached garage and providing access to the rear.
The enclosed rear garden is of a good size, featuring a decked patio area leading down to a lawned garden, all enjoying beautiful open field views, perfect for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
This versatile bungalow combines the ease of ground-floor living with the benefit of a fully compliant third bedroom, making it an excellent option not only for downsizers and retirees but also for first-time buyers and those seeking adaptable accommodation.
