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
Lovingly maintained over many years, the property offers comfortable single-storey living from day one, while architect-prepared concept drawings illustrate how the existing layout could evolve into something truly special.
Whether you're searching for a turnkey bungalow or a home with future potential, 18 Abbey Lane offers both in equal measure.
Inside The entrance porch provides a practical welcome before opening into the central hallway, where all principal rooms radiate from a simple and well-balanced layout.
The principal bedroom enjoys its own en-suite shower room, while two further bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom.
The third bedroom is currently arranged as a home office, offering flexibility for guests or changing family needs.
The spacious lounge and dining room forms the heart of the home, with large windows drawing in natural light and a conservatory extending the living space into the garden.
Positioned alongside, the kitchen presents an excellent opportunity to create a striking open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, making the most of both the garden outlook and the generous proportions already available.
Completing the accommodation is a useful rear porch, providing direct access to the courtyard, detached garage and driveway. Outside Spaces The gardens are a defining feature of the property.
Wrapping around three sides of the bungalow, they have been carefully nurtured to create a wonderfully private outdoor setting, with mature planting, established borders, generous lawn and raised sleeper beds providing colour throughout the seasons.
There is plenty of space to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the sunshine from morning through until evening.
A detached garage and private driveway are accessed from Tudor Lane, while a separate pedestrian entrance from Abbey Lane offers the flexibility of dual access.
The generous plot also provides excellent scope for extension, further landscaping or reconfiguration, subject to the usual consents.
