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
Offered with no onward chain, this delightful two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow presents a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a versatile and inviting home.
The property boasts two generous front aspect double bedrooms, with the second bedroom featuring a staircase that leads to a useful loft conversion, ideal for a home office, hobby room, or to be reconfigured to allow for a true third bedroom.
A family bathroom and a separate WC add to the practicality of the layout.
The living space is designed to make the most of the tranquil rear garden views, with a separate kitchen and a welcoming reception room that seamlessly flows into a bright conservatory, perfect for relaxed mornings or entertaining family and friends.
Requiring modernisation, it offers a blank canvas for a new owner to put their own stamp on the property, with endless possibilities to extend and reconfigure to suit.
The property is set back from the road, benefitting from a substantial frontage that includes a well-kept lawn and a private driveway, providing ample off-street parking and the potential to build a garage.
The beautiful, level rear garden is a true highlight, mainly laid to lawn and framed by mature planted borders that offer both colour and privacy.
A paved patio area invites you to enjoy outdoor dining or simply unwind while overlooking the peaceful surroundings.
This appealing outside space is perfect for keen gardeners, families, or those who love to entertain.
Located within easy reach of reputable schools, convenient transport links, and a range of local amenities, this charming bungalow combines comfortable living with an enviable lifestyle, making it an ideal choice for families or downsizers alike.
