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.

• Courtyard garden Description Positioned at the centre of this historic Grade I Listed Georgian terrace and designed by the renowned architect Thomas Baldwin this light and spacious townhouse was built between 1792-1796 of limestone elevations under a slate tile roof.
The property has been extended to the rear and opens on to a west facing courtyard garden leading to substantial 26’ garaging and private parking.
The accommodation flows over five floors, filled with period character and boasting light and spacious rooms with high ceilings and a wealth of period features to include ornate plasterwork, open fireplaces with their original surrounds, huge sash windows with their wooden shutters and a cantilevered staircase.
An extension to the rear forms a large open plan kitchen/breakfast room on the ground floor, whilst above leads from the main bedroom into a huge en suite bathroom with a private integral staircase down to a large dressing room with built in cupboards – a privacy door opens onto the half landing below.
The upper floors provide five further bedrooms, one having and en suite bathroom and there is a further bathroom and a shower room.
The lower ground floor has been used as a self contained apartment with access from the front steps to the lower front courtyard and cellar vaults.
The original stairs connect to the ground floor and there is a useful utility room and storage on this floor. Situation This is a truly excellent position in Bath.
