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
A three-bedroom semi-detached home on Dunholme Avenue in Thorpe Acre, Loughborough, this property sits on a generous west-facing corner plot that enjoys a lovely natural backdrop and a strong sense of privacy.
It’s an appealing opportunity for a couple, small family or first-time buyer seeking a well-maintained home with a standout garden and plenty of scope to make it their own.
The garden and plot, situated on a quiet residential cul-de-sac, are key features, offering space, maturity and a charming outdoor setting to the rear.
Set in a favourable position on the street, the house benefits from a block-paved driveway that provides ample off street parking and leads to a detached single garage.
Mature shrubs and bushes frame the front of the property, giving it a welcoming and established feel. Inside, the hallway is spacious and practical, with plenty of room for coats and shoes.
From here the downstairs accommodation flows naturally.
To the left is a generous through lounge, beginning with a bright bay fronted living area, moving into a dining space, and finally opening into a conservatory at the rear.
With a large window at the front and the conservatory at the back, this whole living space gets lots of natural light.
The kitchen sits at the rear of the house and has a functional galley style layout with ample cupboard storage, stainless steel sink and drainer, oven, gas hob and space for appliances.
A side window and back door provide further light and views over the garden. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The master bedroom is a good-sized double overlooking the front, while bedroom two is another double with views across the garden.
Bedroom three is ideal as a child’s room, dressing space or home office. The bathroom contains a three-piece suite with bath and overhead shower, basin and w/c.
Additionally, there is a boarded loft with loft ladder, with access from the landing, giving plenty of additional storage space. The garden is the true highlight.
As a corner plot it offers exceptional space, privacy and a wonderfully natural feel. It is west-facing, beautifully mature and has been lovingly maintained in a wildlife friendly, informal style.
A patio sits just outside the conservatory, while a second patio and decked area lie at the far end of the garden, connected by a path that curves around a striking raised Koi carp pond.
Mature trees, including a selection of acers, maple and silver birches, frame the space, creating an enchanting outdoor environment with access to the detached garage which has lights, power and a workbench.
This is a well-kept home in a superb position, with a truly special garden and excellent potential for its next owners.
Properties with plots like this are rare, and early viewing is strongly encouraged to appreciate the setting and space on offer.
