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
An imposing and generously proportioned semi-detached house situated in a desirable residential location, offering substantial accommodation arranged over three floors, a long driveway leading to a single garage, and a well-established south-westerly facing garden.
The property retains a number of attractive original features, including wood-panelled reception rooms and a grand staircase, while requiring a programme of renovation and modernisation to realise its full potential.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming porch leading into a wide entrance hall, where original wood panelling and an impressive staircase create an immediate sense of character and grandeur.
The bay-fronted living room provides a spacious reception area, while the equally impressive dining room benefits from further original wood panelling.
To the rear, a utility room with WC leads through to the kitchen, which has received a more recent upgrade than much of the remainder of the house.
The kitchen opens into a small extension currently arranged as a breakfast room, providing a useful additional living space.
The first floor offers a generous master bedroom with an open en-suite shower and wash hand basin, two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate WC.
The top floor provides two additional bedrooms and a further WC, offering flexible accommodation suitable for a growing family, home working or guest use.
Outside, a long driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a single garage.
The established rear garden enjoys a south-westerly aspect and features a variety of mature planting, creating a private and attractive outdoor setting.
Further benefits includes solar panels and battery system.
