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
Set on a large plot, this extended and renovated three/four bedroom detached house is finished to a great standard.
An impressive 19ft x 17'7 entrance hallway with a sweeping oak staircase sets the tone.
There's reception space in abundance, with three reception rooms (one used as a study, one a TV/snug) and a showstopping 26ft kitchen/diner with quality integrated appliances, an island, worktops and a separate utility room.
The 35ft main reception room could easily be partitioned to create a downstairs bedroom.
Upstairs, the house was previously four bedrooms, but the current owner has created a luxurious master suite with a walk-in wardrobe, Juliet balcony and high-spec bathroom.
The remaining bedrooms are generous doubles, and there's planning permission to extend the upstairs further if desired.
The garden offers a private aspect, composite decking, a large patio, and a purpose-built garden studio - ideal as a home office, gym or teenagers' den.
The Marlings Park location gives easy access to Petts Wood Village, Chislehurst High Street and both Petts Wood and St Mary's Cray stations, plus the Nugents shopping parade.
It's also well placed for schooling, with three Bexley grammar schools - Chislehurst and Sidcup, Bexley, and Beths - all within reach, alongside Newstead Wood and St Olave's in nearby Orpington.
Guide price £1,150,000- £1,200,000: Set on the popular Marlings Park area in-between Petts Wood & Chislehurst Royal Parade, is this well presented & extended three/four bedroom detached house of over 2,800 sq ft.
Renovated to a high standard & with a fabulous mature garden stretching to over 150ft with a garden studio/office included.
