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 well-presented four-bedroom family home, built in 2014 by Taylor Wimpey, situated in a quiet no through-road and a short walk to Cuckfield High Street and the local schools.
This detached property offers well-proportioned accommodation over two floors and great outdoor space for entertaining and family life.
Downstairs there is a large sitting/dining room with a glass vaulted ceiling room to the rear and French doors lead out to the mature and well-presented, sunny, west-facing garden.
The entrance hall provides two storage cupboards, a downstairs cloakroom and a separate kitchen with integrated appliances and a sunny breakfast spot in the front bay window.
Leading up the stairs off a generous first floor landing are four double bedrooms, one currently being used as an office.
The principal suite has large built-in wardrobes for ample storage and an ensuite shower room. Two of the other bedrooms have builtin wardrobes and the house is flooded with natural light throughout.
To the front of the property there is off-street parking and an attached garage with gated side access.
The garden to the rear has been beautifully planted and considered with mature hedging and borders, a paved arbor seat and a sunny patio ideal for alfresco dining and decking.
Located in the highly sought after village of Cuckfield, with a short walk to the High Street the village provides a wonderful range of local amenities including independent shops and boutiques, a convenience store, a petrol station, medical centre, dentist, pubs, restaurants, cafes and the award winning Ockenden Manor Hotel and Spa.
The village enjoys a local bus service to Haywards Heath where more comprehensive shopping facilities may be found, including a wide range of shops, restaurants, bars and a modern leisure centre.
Nearby Haywards Heath has a mainline railway station with fast and frequent commuter services to both London Victoria and London Bridge (from 42 mins), Gatwick Airport and Brighton.
The A23 offers direct access to the motorway network, Gatwick, Heathrow and the South coast. There is an excellent range of educational facilities locally both in the private and state sectors.
Holy Trinity Primary and Warden Park Academy are a short walk away and private schools include Great Walstead, Cumnor House, Handcross Park, Ardingly College, Hurstpierpoint College, Brighton College and Burgess Hill Girls.
The surrounding countryside provides a vast range of sporting and recreational activities. Glyndebourne, Goodwood, Ardingly Showground and Plumpton are all within easy reach.
The local footpaths provide a vast network of stunning walks from the village, many leading towards the South Down and Ashdown National Parks.
