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.

Agents Note The current owners obtained planning permission to extend the bungalow.
The work has been carried out so far as to extend the bedrooms and bathroom area, however, the permission also included extending the living area which hasn't been completed.
There is excellent scope for the new owner to finish this extension and create a superb living space looking out towards the cathedral.
(The architect's drawing is shown within our advert) Garden The property sits within a superb half acre plot (subject to survey) backing onto fields with beautiful views across countryside of Ely Cathedral.
The rear garden is well maintained and offers excellent privacy. Adjoining the bungalow is a lawn with a large timber outbuilding/workshop with electricity connected.
A picket fence and gate then lead to a vegetable garden with more sheds and a chicken coup. Beyond this is an orchard with apple, plum and pear trees.
The garden provides a most attractive setting and should be viewed to be fully appreciated. Parking - Driveway To the front of the property is a spacious gravelled driveway.
