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
Exceptional Five Bedroom Detached Modern Home, Two Reception Rooms, Double Garage, Corner Plot.
Positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac within one of Longstanton's most desirable developments, this substantial five-bedroom detached home offers over three floors of well-planned accommodation, beautifully landscaped gardens and an excellent location just a short walk from the village High Street, primary school and Guided Busway.
The entrance hall provides access to all of the ground floor accommodation and features attractive wooden flooring that continues through much of the downstairs.
The spacious living room is filled with natural light thanks to its bay window and offers an excellent place to relax, while a second reception room provides valuable flexibility and is currently arranged as a family room, although it would work equally well as a home office, playroom or snug.
The open-plan kitchen and dining room is undoubtedly the centrepiece of the home, creating a fantastic space for both everyday family life and entertaining.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with quartz worktops, a breakfast bar and generous storage, while the dining area comfortably accommodates a large table with French doors opening directly onto the garden.
A separate utility room provides additional storage, space for appliances and a practical area for coats, shoes and laundry, with direct access outside.
The first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous double bedroom with a stylish en-suite shower room.
There are two further double bedrooms, a fifth bedroom currently used as a home office and a beautifully finished family bathroom.
Occupying the entire second floor, the impressive master suite provides an excellent level of privacy and features a spacious double bedroom, walk-in dressing room and a modern en-suite shower room.
Outside, the property continues with a professionally landscaped rear garden that has been thoughtfully designed to create a variety of spaces to enjoy throughout the year.
Established planting, mature trees and well-stocked borders provide a private setting, while an attractive arbour leads to a secluded paved patio that is perfect for outdoor dining.
A raised pergola offers an ideal space for a hot tub or additional seating area, and thanks to the generous corner plot, the garden extends around the side of the property where there is further lawn and raised vegetable beds.
To the front, a double-width driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the detached double garage, which benefits from power and useful overhead storage.
The position at the end of the cul-de-sac means there is no passing traffic, making this a particularly peaceful setting while still being within easy walking distance of the village amenities.
Location Longstanton has become one of South Cambridgeshire's most sought-after villages, offering an excellent balance of village life and modern convenience.
The village benefits from a wide range of amenities including a well-regarded primary school, doctor's surgery, dentist, shops, public houses, café, village green and a variety of sports clubs and community groups.
The Guided Busway provides fast and direct access into Cambridge, Addenbrooke's Hospital and Cambridge Science Park, while the A14 and M11 are easily accessible for commuters.
For rail travel, both Cambridge North and Waterbeach stations are within easy reach, offering regular services to London and beyond.
With plenty of green spaces, countryside walks and an active community, Longstanton is a fantastic place for families and professionals alike.
