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.

A substantial, detached family house in this highly regarded location in Southborough.
Description Set in a sought-after location in Southborough, this substantial family home has been expanded and adapted to create a wonderful backdrop for modern family living.
The house offers light, airy, and spacious accommodation, perfect for entertaining and family life.

Considerable thought has been given to creating a flexible layout that is well-suited to family life and entertaining, and which can easily be adapted to suit individual family requirements.
Built in the 1980s, the current owners have comprehensively remodelled and renovated the property.
A new spacious kitchen and family room has been added to the rear of the house, with full-width bi-fold doors opening out directly on to a stunning patio, forming a seamless transition to the recently landscaped south-facing rear garden.
The bespoke, handmade Tom Howley kitchen features cabinetry including wall units with appliance sockets, pan drawers with hidden cutlery inserts, a full-length pantry cupboard and a curved breakfast bar.
