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.

The ground floor has been recently updated with new flooring throughout, creating a fresh and contemporary feel.

Upstairs are three bedrooms — two doubles and a good-sized single — along with a wet room fitted with a shower area, wash hand basin, and WC.
The property occupies a corner plot with enclosed gardens to both the front and rear.
The rear garden features a good-sized patio area, perfect for outdoor dining or entertaining, with the remainder laid to lawn.
There is also a block-built outbuilding and wooden shed, both fitted with electricity, providing useful storage or potential workshop space.
