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
PropertyWorld is delighted to present this exceptional four-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house on Selby Road, SE20.
Offering over 1,550 sq ft of beautifully proportioned accommodation, the property has been lovingly and comprehensively upgraded over the last four years, while retaining the wealth of period character that makes this home so special.
Arranged over two floors and flooded with natural light, the house is packed with period features including fireplaces in virtually every room, decorative cornicing and further original detailing.
The ground floor offers two impressive reception rooms plus a fourth double bedroom, providing excellent flexibility.
The main reception features a period fireplace and patio doors onto the garden, while the separate dining room has herringbone-style flooring, a large bay window and further fireplace.
The stunning contemporary kitchen combines sleek white handleless units, contrasting dark worktops and integrated appliances, including double oven/microwave.
A separate utility room provides space for washing machine and tumble dryer and incorporates a useful WC.
Upstairs are three further genuine double bedrooms, all with period fireplaces, plus two stylish bathrooms – one with bath and fully tiled grey finish and the other with a walk-in shower.
The extensive refurbishment included replastering throughout. Externally, the handsome Victorian façade has been repointed and brickwork cleaned, while a new driveway provides parking for two cars.
To the rear is a fabulous 54ft x 37ft south-westerly garden, predominantly laid to lawn, with an awning providing shade and electrical cabling ready for a potential garden room or outside bar.
A substantial loft also offers exciting potential for conversion into extensive additional living space, potentially one or two further bedrooms, as neighbouring properties have done, subject to the usual consents.
A quite exceptional period family home.
"This house has been in my family since I was born, I was fortunate enough to live here with my own family for a while, it's a great quiet place to relax and have great get togethers at!
The road is central to so many transport links and local places, the neighbours are lovely, due to downsizing this house needs a new family!"
