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 lovely corner plot with wrap-around gardens in a quiet and highly regarded cul-de-sac within the village of Bilsthorpe, this detached bungalow enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining close to a good range of local amenities.
Deceptively spacious throughout, the property offers excellent potential for a new owner to modernise and create a home tailored to their own tastes.
The accommodation is arranged over a single level and briefly comprises an entrance porch with UPVC front door, leading through to a welcoming living room featuring a fireplace and windows to both the front and side elevations, creating a bright and airy feel.
An open archway leads into the dining room, which also benefits from a front-facing window, allowing plenty of natural light to flow through both spaces.
A serving hatch connects conveniently to the kitchen. From the inner hallway, there is access to a partly boarded loft, providing useful storage space.
The loft benefits from power and lighting and is accessed via a fitted drop-down ladder.
The inner hallway also leads to the kitchen, which, whilst offering scope for modernisation, remains fully functional and practical.
It is fitted with a range of base and wall units, an electric oven, ceramic hob with extractor hood above, stainless steel sink with drainer, under-counter fridge and freezer, microwave, and space for additional white goods.
The conservatory provides useful additional utility space and includes a fridge/freezer, washing machine, and tumble dryer.
A door leads through to the rear conservatory, which provides internal access to the single garage with remote-controlled door, power and lighting.
The Worcester gas combination boiler is located within the garage and was installed in 2021, together with replacement pipework and all radiators.
To the rear of the property are two generous double bedrooms, both featuring fitted wardrobes and window shutters.
The principal bedroom benefits from a fully tiled en-suite shower room comprising a walk-in shower cubicle, WC, bidet and wash hand basin with vanity unit, together with underfloor heating and a heated towel rail.
The third bedroom is currently arranged as a home office and enjoys patio doors opening into the garden room - a peaceful space to relax and enjoy views over the beautifully maintained garden.
Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom, fitted with a shower bath, WC and wash hand basin.
To the front of the property, a block-paved driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the garage. Secure gated access is available to both sides of the property.
The wrap-around garden has been attractively landscaped and carefully maintained, featuring well-stocked borders and flower beds, a shaded seating area, pergola, and an 8ft x 8ft garden shed which includes a small freezer.
The garden is fully enclosed, offering privacy and a pleasant outdoor space to enjoy.
