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
Property Insight: This semi-detached family home is located in a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular village of Lower Stondon.
Although in need of some internal work, it benefits from good size rooms, a practical layout and a lovely south-facing garden, as well as a driveway and garage.
As you step inside, the entrance hall features a modern vertical radiator and leads through to a spacious sitting room. This room features a lovely bay window and a feature fireplace.
The floor is laid with practical laminate flooring and it’s easy to imagine the space transformed with some fresh paint and comfy sofas, creating the perfect space to relax with the family after a busy day.
An understairs cupboard provides handy storage. Leading off from the sitting room is the kitchen/diner.
Again, in need of a little tlc, the kitchen is contemporary in design and features pale green shaker-style cabinetry with contrasting black work surfaces and coordinating mosaic splashbacks.
Integrated appliances include a wall-mounted electric oven, induction hob with stainless steel extractor hood, dishwasher and fridge-freezer.
There is space for a dining table and chairs, making it the ideal space for enjoying meals with family and friends. A glazed door leads through to a generously sized conservatory.
Measuring 17’ in length and featuring practical laminate flooring, this is an extremely versatile space that could be used as an additional reception room – particularly ideal during the summer months - a combined dining/sitting room or even a spacious playroom.
Two sets of doors open on to the garden, making it perfect for summer entertaining and indoor-outdoor living. Additional doors lead to a handy utility and downstairs cloakroom.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned double bedrooms – each feels airy and is a good size with plenty of space for furniture, but in need of redecoration.
The family bathroom is bright and features a modern white suite with a large shower cubicle, white feature wall tiles with a black floral motif and coordinating black floor tiles.
Outside, the property benefits from a spacious and south-facing rear garden with a secluded patio area that is perfect for entertaining.
A large lawn provides a great setting for children to play and there are a variety of plants and shrubs, including a beautiful magnolia. If you’re a keen gardener there is even a greenhouse.
At the front of the house is a small lawn and a driveway providing off-street parking, plus a garage for storage.
Despite needing some refurbishment, it’s easy to see what a lovely family home this will become, and it has the additional benefit of no onward chain.
