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
Detailed Description A beautifully presented ground floor one bedroom apartment which benefits from having its own patio garden area.
The owner has transformed this property with a wonderful eye for detail, creating a stunning apartment with luxury fittings throughout.
Location Bancroft Court is a small block of apartments which is surrounded by Epping Forest, making a lovely leafy environment, but ideally just a walk away from Buckhurst Hill's shops, cafes and restaurants in Queens Road.
The Central Line gives easy access to the City, Canary Wharf and West End, and for road users, the M25, M11 and routes into London are conveniently close by.
The area is well served by an excellent choice of leisure pursuits, with tennis, golf, cricket clubs and a David Lloyd Club a short drive way.
Interior This stunning ground floor apartment is accessed from a communal hallway with a secure entry system.
The flat opens to a wonderful open plan kitchen living space with French doors opening to the patio garden.
The kitchen area is fitted with contemporary Shaker style units with quartz worktops and there is an island which offers a nice eating area.
There are integrated appliances including a dishwasher, wine fridge, double oven, induction hob and extractor.
The lounge area is stylishly presented with wooden flooring and a feature media wall with storage below. French doors open to the courtyard garden area, creating a perfect entertaining space.
The bedroom is a good size double room with bespoke fitted wardrobes and chest of drawers with space for a wall-mounted TV above.
This is served by a luxury shower room with a generous shower cubicle, white suite, contrasting tiling and built in storage.
Exterior This apartment benefits from having its own patio garden off the living space, so a perfect spot for a morning coffee or evening glass of something stronger.
There are well maintained communal grounds and each flat has an allocated parking space.
Agents note The flat is being sold with a Share of the Freehold and we are told that the service charge presently sits at £125 per month.
