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
Situated on the popular Benson Drive in Northam, this is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a 2 Bedroom mid-terrace home offered to the market for sale with the distinctive advantage of no onward chain, making it an ideal purchase for first time buyers, investors or those seeking a straightforward move.
Approached via a charming picket fence frontage with a small courtyard garden, the property offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout with excellent potential for cosmetic improvement to truly make it your own.
Upon entering, the Entrance Hall features wood laminate flooring and provides access to a convenient Cloakroom fitted with a WC and wall mounted wash hand basin.
The Kitchen is fitted with a range of cream base level units with matching drawers and wood block effect work surfaces, with space and plumbing for a washing machine, space for an electric cooker and further space for a fridge / freezer.
To the rear, the Living / Dining Room is a comfortable and versatile space with ample room for both seating and dining arrangements, again, with wood laminate flooring and a large understairs storage cupboard.
Double glazed French doors open directly onto the rear garden creating a pleasant connection between the indoor and outdoor space.
The rear garden has a patio area immediately adjoining the house, ideal for outdoor seating, with steps rising to a lawned section bordered by fencing and with useful storage sheds positioned to the side and at the rear.
The property also benefits from an allocated parking space in the communal car park.
Upstairs, both Bedrooms are well-sized doubles The main bedroom enjoys built-in double wardrobes together with a generous over-stairs storage cupboard and pleasant views towards the river and nearby parkland to the front.
The second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and includes a cupboard housing the gas fired boiler.
The Bathroom is centrally positioned and fitted with a bath with shower over, wash hand basin and close couple WC with dual flush.
The property would benefit from general updating and cosmetic improvement, but the majority of works are considered to be remedial, with new floor coverings and re-decoration likely to make a significant difference.
Given the popular location, pleasant outlook and the advantage of no onward chain, this is a property that offers excellent potential and is well worthy of an early viewing.
