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
Occupying a sought-after position within the ever-popular Bengeo area of Hertford, this beautifully presented two-bedroom Victorian home effortlessly combines timeless character with stylish contemporary living.
Having been thoughtfully renovated and improved by the current owners, the property offers approximately 613 sq ft of bright, well-designed accommodation, together with a generous rear garden and a versatile detached outbuilding.
From the moment you step inside, it is clear this is a home that has been lovingly cared for.
The welcoming living room is centred around an attractive exposed brick fireplace, creating a wonderful focal point, whilst quality herringbone flooring and tasteful décor add warmth and style throughout.
To the rear, the property opens into an impressive kitchen/dining room extending over 21ft in length.
Beautiful shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops, integrated storage, a large roof lantern and French doors combine to create a superb entertaining space, flooded with natural light and enjoying direct access onto the rear garden.
The first floor offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, both enjoying pleasant outlooks, together with a beautifully appointed contemporary shower room finished to a high standard.
Outside, the rear garden extends to an excellent length, providing a patio seating area immediately behind the house before leading onto a lawn with mature planting and established borders.
At the far end of the garden sits a detached outbuilding, currently used for storage but offering fantastic potential as a home office, studio or gym, subject to any necessary improvements.
To the front, the property benefits from off-street parking.
Duncombe Road is regarded as one of Bengeo's most desirable residential roads, offering the perfect balance between peaceful residential living and convenience.

The area is also well served by highly regarded schools, Hartham Common, riverside walks and excellent road links via the A10, M25 and A414.
