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.

Approached from the front along the side of the property, steps rise to the front door, which opens into a spacious entrance hallway.
The hallway provides plenty of natural light, useful storage and views through to the principal rooms and garden. The accommodation is particularly versatile.
The main living space comprises a generous lounge/dining room, enjoying a south-facing aspect overlooking the garden. A feature gas fire provides a central focal point to the room.
From here, access leads into the well-equipped kitchen, which benefits from a range of appliances including an integrated dishwasher, washer/dryer, combination oven, double oven and four-ring Bosch induction hob, and a wine fridge.
The kitchen is finished with quartz work surfaces and matching return, together with useful under-counter strip lighting.
From the hallway, there is also access to a further reception room, currently used as a sitting room but offering a variety of potential uses including a snug, dining room or reading room.
Bi-fold doors open onto the patio area, which is enclosed by glass balustrading.
The ground floor also benefits from a double bedroom and separate bathroom, with underfloor heating running throughout the ground floor.

The landing also incorporates a useful home office area, providing space for a desk and chair and an ideal area for working from home.
