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
'Glasgoed' (29) Maesbrith is a detached 3 bedroom bungalow of rendered block and brick construction under a slated roof set in the foothills of Cader Idris.
The property is on a private corner plot, and could be considered to have the most enviable position on the estate due to the un-interrupted views across the town and toward the mountains beyond.
The rear garden backs on to woodland and is not overlooked, offering a very private place to sit, relax and enjoy the view.
The bungalow is located in a quiet location on a private estate on the outskirts of town, yet within walking distance of it.
The property benefits from concrete floors, gas central heating and UPVC double glazing, and is complimented with an open fire in the living/dinning room.
Accommodation also provides a separate kitchen, a bathroom with shower, 3 bedrooms, front and rear gardens, a detached brick built garage with a wide driveway, offering off road parking for several vehicles and an access path down the opposite side of the property.
The property has undergone some refurbishment works but would benefit from further works by the new owners.
The ancient market town of Dolgellau sits within an area of outstanding natural beauty set in the Southern Snowdonia National Park, at the foot of the Cader Idris mountain range.
Dolgellau is an excellent base for walkers and outdoor pursuits.
The town provides a small cottage hospital, primary & secondary schools, a tertiary college as well as restaurants, pubs, library, rugby & cricket clubs and is within 10 miles of the coast and 6 miles of a main line railway station.
