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
Tucked away in a popular cul-de-sac in Costessey is this beautifully extended and renovated 2 bedroom home.
The impressive open plan kitchen/dining family area forms the centrepiece of this home, offering a stunning specification and an impressive sense of space, perfectly suited to modern living.
Incorporating a bespoke dining area and generous family seating space, the room is flooded with natural light from a Velux window and additional glazed aspects.
The kitchen is exceptionally well fitted with a comprehensive range of white gloss wall and base units beneath complementary work surfaces and stylish tiled splashbacks.
Integrated appliances include a combination oven with warming drawer, fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, together with a 1.5 sink and drainer.
A substantial central island provides further storage and breakfast seating, complete with a six-ring gas hob and extractor above.
Underfloor heating enhances comfort, while French doors open directly onto the garden. Smooth plastered ceilings and contemporary finishes continue throughout, reinforcing the high-quality feel.
The sitting room offers a well-proportioned and more formal reception space, featuring wood-effect flooring, a feature fireplace and direct access to the rear garden, enjoying a pleasant outlook.
The property is entered via the main front door into a welcoming entrance hall with continued flooring, stairs rising to the first floor with storage beneath, and access to the principal reception areas.
To the first floor, the landing provides access to two double bedrooms, the family bathroom and a storage cupboard, with loft access above.
The principal bedroom is particularly generous, incorporating a defined dressing area and enjoying lovely views over the rear garden and lightly wooded backdrop.
An en-suite shower room comprises a shower enclosure, WC and wash basin set within vanity storage. The second bedroom is also a comfortable double, positioned to the front of the property.
The family bathroom is well-appointed with an L-shaped bath and rainfall shower over, WC and wash basin with storage beneath, complemented by tiled walls and wood-effect flooring.
Externally, the property is approached via a driveway providing off-road parking for two vehicles and access to the garage.
The front garden is laid to lawn with a pathway and steps leading to the entrance.
The rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for low maintenance and year-round enjoyment, arranged in a courtyard style with artificial lawn and enclosed boundaries.
Backing onto a private, lightly wooded backdrop, it offers a delightful sense of privacy. A bespoke studio/home office provides a versatile additional space, ideal for remote working or creative use.
