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
Located on one of Islington’s most sought-after streets, this beautifully proportioned one-bedroom apartment spans two floors and features two private roof terraces.
The home is thoughtfully designed, with a focus on natural light and outdoor living spaces.
Accessed via its own front door at street level, the first floor is centred around an open-plan living and kitchen area.
Full-height windows bring abundant light into the living space, framing views over the tree-lined Cross Street.
The kitchen is cleverly integrated into the dining area, with a door leading out to the first of two terraces.
Upstairs, the large double bedroom enjoys a south-facing aspect, maximising light throughout the day.
A set of stairs leads to the second, more expansive roof terrace, which offers far-reaching views over the surrounding rooftops.
Cross Street, known for its period Georgian architecture and boutique stores, sits between Upper Street and Essex Road.
The street is quiet, thanks to traffic restrictions, creating a peaceful yet central location.
The cafes, independent shops, and restaurants of Upper Street are just a short walk away, with Angel and Highbury & Islington stations within easy reach.
Location Perfect for the shops, cafes, bars and restaurants of Upper Street this location is also very well served by public transport, with both Angel and Highbury and Islington Stations within easy walking distance.
