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 attractive period semi-detached family home, occupying a quiet cul-de-sac within the ever-popular Firswood area.
Offering beautifully presented accommodation, a stunning newly fitted bathroom, and a south-facing garden, all within easy reach of Manchester city centre, Longford Park, the Metrolink and the vibrant amenities of Chorlton.
Full of character and thoughtfully maintained throughout, the property combines elegant period proportions with practical modern living.
An enclosed porch opens into a welcoming entrance hall with stripped and polished wooden flooring which continues through the two reception rooms.
Charming additional features include high ceilings, original stained glass sidelights, column radiators, and period-style gas fireplaces.
To the front, a generous bay-fronted reception room is currently arranged as a formal dining room, whilst a second reception room to the rear provides a comfortable living space with French doors opening directly onto the garden, creating an effortless connection between inside and out.
These rooms are extremely versatile, easily reconfigured to a buyer’s needs.
The extended dual-aspect kitchen enjoys excellent natural light and incorporates a useful utility area, together with side access to the garden.
A convenient ground-floor WC is positioned underneath the staircase.
To the first floor are two particularly spacious double bedrooms, and a well-proportioned single bedroom equally suitable as a home office, all with stylish wool berber carpets and contemporary decor.
The family wetroom bathroom, newly completed in 2025, is a fabulous addition.
Finished to an exceptional standard, it features a freestanding bath, separate walk-in shower and premium fixtures and fittings, creating a luxurious space that is undoubtedly one of the home's standout features.
Externally, the gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a private and mature setting, with established shrubs, fruit trees and an Indian stone patio ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining.
A further side garden is currently arranged as a productive planting area, whilst a secure concrete-built outbuilding provides excellent storage.
To the front, a smart Indian stone driveway provides off-road parking for one vehicle, with gated access to the side of the property.
Further improvements include replacement double glazing and roof within the last ten years, a recently updated boiler and consumer unit, loft insulation with boarded central storage, and tasteful decoration throughout.
Planning permission has also been submitted for a side extension to enlarge the kitchen and create a dedicated utility room, offering exciting potential for future buyers.
Firswood has become one of Trafford's most sought-after residential neighbourhoods, thanks to its quiet tree-lined streets, excellent transport links and easy access to both Chorlton and Manchester city centre.
Combining period charm, quality improvements and future potential, this is a superb family home in a location that continues to grow in popularity.
