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
Set within a popular residential road in Highworth, St Michaels Avenue is a well-presented three-bedroom detached bungalow offering flexible, single-level accommodation ideal for a range of buyers.
The property is approached via a block-paved driveway providing off-road parking, with an attached garage and gravelled front garden bordered by mature planting.
The kitchen is a generous size, fitted with a range of gloss cabinetry and contrasting worktops, with a range-style cooker and room for a table.
A separate utility room provides additional storage and space for laundry appliances.
A separate dining and living room provides a sociable space with a feature fireplace, and French doors opening onto a private decked area overlooking the garden.
A second reception room to the front of the home offers excellent flexibility, and could equally serve as a fourth bedroom, benefitting from a bright bay window.
There are three further bedrooms, together with a family bathroom fitted with a corner bath, shower over and grab rail, making this a particularly adaptable home for those seeking easy, single-storey living.
Outside, the rear garden is a real feature of the property - generously sized, mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging and planting for a good degree of privacy.
A paved patio area provides space for outdoor entertaining, along with a timber shed for storage, and the garden also benefits from direct access to the garage.
Highworth is a historic market town on the edge of the Cotswolds, with roots dating back centuries and a charter for its market granted in 1206 - still held weekly in the Market Place today.
Highworth has a strong community feel, with independent shops, cafés and traditional pubs lining the High Street, alongside regular local events and markets.
Highworth is well served for schooling, with Highworth Warneford School providing secondary education for the town, alongside a range of well-regarded primary schools nearby.
Despite its peaceful market-town setting, Highworth is well placed for commuters, with easy access to the A361 and A419 linking to Swindon and beyond.
Swindon railway station, a short drive away, offers regular mainline services to London Paddington, Bristol and other major destinations.
