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
Beautifully presented and thoughtfully arranged across three beautifully proportioned floors, this impressive four-bedroom semi-detached home offers more than 1,300 sq ft of versatile living space, combining timeless period character with a stylish, contemporary interior.
From its elegant bay-windowed façade to its exceptional south-west facing rear garden, the property has been designed to deliver both everyday comfort and an enviable setting for entertaining.
The ground floor immediately impresses with a welcoming living room filled with natural light.
A striking bay window, rich wall panelling and a modern electric fireplace create a warm and sophisticated atmosphere, while double doors open into the real centrepiece of the home: An expansive kitchen and dining space.
Beautifully equipped for both relaxed family life and entertaining, the kitchen provides an abundance of cabinetry, generous work surfaces and a central island, creating a practical yet sociable environment.
The adjoining dining area is flooded with sunlight and enjoys direct access to the rear garden, allowing the indoors and outdoors to flow effortlessly together.
A useful guest WC and excellent storage further enhance the practicality of this level. Outside, the garden is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features.
Extending approximately 140ft and enjoying a desirable south-west aspect, this substantial private garden offers an exceptional sense of space.
A dedicated sheltered entertaining area and outdoor bar create the perfect backdrop for summer lunches, evening drinks and gatherings with friends, while the generous lawn and established surroundings provide plenty of room for children, gardening and relaxation.
With such a versatile outdoor setting, this is a garden designed to be enjoyed rather than simply admired.
The first floor provides two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from bespoke built-in wardrobes, with the front bedroom further enhanced by an attractive bay window.
A versatile third room offers flexibility to suit modern lifestyles and could be used as a nursery, dressing room or peaceful home office.
Completing this floor is a beautifully appointed family bathroom, featuring sleek contemporary fittings, a stylish vanity basin and a deep bath with an overhead rainfall shower.
The entire top floor is dedicated to the principal bedroom, creating a wonderfully private retreat away from the rest of the home.
Far-reaching views extend across the rooftops of Folkestone, while extensive eaves storage provides an abundance of useful space without compromising the room's calm, uncluttered feel.
The property also benefits from a large driveway and garage, adding valuable off-road parking and storage.
Its location is equally appealing, with Folkestone Central station approximately 0.8 miles away, providing high-speed rail connections to London, while the town centre, local shops and supermarkets, Royal Victoria Hospital, Folkestone Harbour and the beach are all within easy reach.
The M20 is also readily accessible, making this an ideal home for commuters and those seeking convenient connections.
A superb blend of character, contemporary style, generous accommodation and exceptional outdoor space, this is a home that truly needs to be seen to be appreciated.
