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
An ultra-modern detached coach house with superb kerb appeal, forming part of the striking Fusion development by Messrs Cavanna Homes.
Bought off-plan by the current owners and much loved as their first home, the property has been beautifully kept and offers a smart, low-maintenance layout with the remainder of the NHBC structural guarantee in place.
Set in a peaceful cul-de-sac position with fields and trees behind the development, the property has a brilliant sense of privacy and calm.
Unlike many coach houses, this home has no adjoining neighbours, giving it a more detached feel and reducing the usual concerns around noise and shared walls.
The approach is smart and attractive, with driveway parking for two vehicles and a garage positioned beneath the accommodation.
The front door opens into a practical entrance area, with stairs rising to the main living space on the first floor.
The accommodation is bright and well-balanced, helped by a sunny aspect, generous ceiling heights and cleverly placed skylights which draw natural light through the property.
The main living area is a lovely open-plan lounge/dining room, offering excellent space for both relaxing and entertaining.
There is plenty of room for a sofa suite and dining table, while the Juliet balcony to the front adds to the light, open feel.
The kitchen sits just off the living space and has a smart, practical layout with plenty of worktop space, good cupboard storage, an integrated dishwasher, gas hob, built-in oven and space for a fridge freezer.
There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms.
The principal bedroom is a particularly good size and benefits from a useful dressing area, while the second bedroom also feels generous and includes built-in storage.
The bathroom is spacious and neatly presented, fitted with a bath with shower over and screen, WC, wash hand basin and heated towel radiator.
On the ground floor, the larger-than-average garage is a real bonus.
It has power and lighting, plenty of space for storage, bikes, paddleboards or hobbies, and a handy laundry/storage area, keeping the practical side of day-to-day life tucked neatly away from the main living accommodation.
Outside, the property enjoys a private, low-maintenance garden space, ideal for barbecues, outside dining or simply relaxing in the sun.
The garden has been designed for ease, with artificial lawn, decked seating area and a sail-style canopy creating a usable and private spot with very little upkeep required.
This is a superb first home, lock-up-and-leave property or modern downsizing option, offering all the benefits of a nearly new home, attractive presentation, parking, garaging and a peaceful setting within a convenient Torquay location.
EPC Rating: C Location Plantation Way forms part of the popular Fusion development, a smart residential setting well placed for daily convenience, local walks and wider transport links.
The property is positioned close to open green space, with fields and trees giving the development a softer edge and making it appealing for buyers who want a modern home without feeling hemmed in.
The location is particularly practical for access to The Willows, Wren Retail Park and nearby supermarkets, including Marks & Spencer, Sainsbury’s, Boots, Next and a range of everyday shops and services.
Torbay Hospital is also easily accessible, making the area convenient for medical professionals, hospital workers or buyers wanting strong links to one of the area’s major employment hubs.
There are a number of schools within the wider area, along with local parks, play areas and green spaces.
Shiphay, Edginswell and Barton are all nearby, offering additional shops, takeaways, local amenities and regular bus routes into Torquay town centre, Newton Abbot and surrounding areas.
For commuters, the property is well placed for the South Devon Highway, giving improved road links towards Newton Abbot, Exeter, Plymouth and beyond.
Torre railway station and Torquay railway station are also within reach, providing rail connections across the region.
Torquay seafront, harbour, marina and town centre are a short drive away, offering restaurants, bars, beaches, coastal walks and leisure facilities.
For buyers moving into the area, this location offers a strong balance of modern residential living, practical amenities and easy access to both the coast and commuter routes.
Garden The property has a private, low-maintenance garden positioned to the side/rear of the coach house.
Designed for ease of use, it includes artificial lawn, a decked seating area and a sail canopy, creating a great space for barbecues, outdoor dining and relaxing with friends.
It is enclosed and private, making it particularly useful for buyers who want outside space without the ongoing demands of a traditional garden.

Parking - Driveway The property owns a parcel of land directly in front of the coach house which the current owners have on the deeds and park 2 cars.
