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
A spacious and highly individual one-bedroom first-floor flat, offering approximately 665 sq ft of internal accommodation, together with an unusually generous private driveway, separate garage, substantial boarded loft and a versatile outbuilding.
The property is approached via its own private entrance, with stairs leading to a bright first-floor landing.
To the front is an impressive bay-fronted living room measuring nearly 17ft, providing ample space for relaxing, dining or working from home.
The accommodation also includes a generous double bedroom, a fitted kitchen and a windowed bathroom.
A particular feature is the private front driveway, which the vendor advises measures approximately 80 sq m and provides parking for up to three vehicles.
There is also a separate garage and a secure outbuilding, ideal for bicycles, storage or specialist home-working use.
The outbuilding is equipped with a 12kW air-conditioning system and dual 16-amp power supplies, making it potentially suitable for securely housing high-powered server or it equipment.
The property also benefits from an extensive loft space, with a footprint approximately equivalent to the combined area of the bedroom, staircase and living room.
The loft is already boarded, providing substantial additional storage.
The vendor advises that 97A includes the freehold interest for the entire building, with the lease of the ground-floor property, 97, granted by the owner of 97A.
This arrangement, together with the exact tenure, lease terms and associated responsibilities, should be confirmed by the purchaser’s solicitor.
Conveniently positioned for local shops, amenities and transport links, this distinctive property would make an excellent home for first-time buyers, commuters, investors or those requiring exceptional parking, storage and home-working facilities.
