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
Cedars Close is an exclusive gated development set within peaceful woodland surroundings, occupying the historic grounds of the original Cedars mansion and thoughtfully redeveloped in the 1990s.
Combining privacy, security and a highly convenient location, this sought-after development offers a rare balance of tranquillity and connectivity in the heart of South East London.
This impressive first-floor apartment is one of the larger designs within the development and presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, professionals, or those looking to downsize without compromising on space or comfort.
Extending to approximately 779sq ft, the apartment offers exceptionally well-proportioned accommodation with a practical and flowing layout centred around a welcoming entrance hallway.
The generous room sizes create a sense of space rarely found in comparable apartments, delivering excellent value for money.
The property features two substantial double bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom with en-suite shower room as well as a family bathroom.
A particular highlight is the large kitchen/dining room, designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind.
The dedicated dining area benefits from a large south-west facing window, allowing natural light to flood the space while enjoying attractive open views.
The lounge is quietly positioned to the rear of the building, overlooking the communal gardens and providing a calm and relaxing living environment.
Thanks to the apartment’s favourable position within the block and the excellent placement of the windows, the property enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout the day, further enhancing the bright, airy and spacious atmosphere.
The apartment has recently been refreshed with new carpets and fresh decoration throughout, allowing any incoming purchaser to move straight in with minimal effort required, although some updating to the bathroom and kitchen fittings may be preferred.
Externally, the property benefits from a private allocated parking space located directly next to the front of the building, in addition to the security and exclusivity offered by the gated development.
Cedars Close enjoys a prime position just off Belmont Hill, ideally located within walking distance of both Blackheath Village and Lewisham Town Centre.
Residents benefit from an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, boutique shops, parks and everyday amenities nearby.
The location is particularly appealing for commuters, with both Blackheath Station and Lewisham Station (including DLR services) situated less than half a mile away, offering fast and direct connection to London Bridge, Cannon Street, Waterloo East, Charing Cross, Victoria, Canary Wharf and Bank.
