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
Guide Price £150.000-£160,000 three bedrooms, generous gardens & endless potential!
Situated in a popular residential area of South Kirkby, this three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to put their own stamp on a property.
Boasting a spacious through lounge/dining room, three well-proportioned bedrooms, a detached garage and generous gardens to both front and rear, this home has all the ingredients for a wonderful family home.
Whilst the property would benefit from some modernisation, it offers excellent scope to update and personalise, making it an appealing prospect for first-time buyers, growing families or anyone looking for a property with real potential.
With a good-sized front garden, gated side access and a lovely rear garden, there's plenty to appreciate both inside and out!
Stepping inside, a welcoming entrance hall provides access to the first floor and leads into the impressively proportioned through lounge/dining room, stretching from the front to the rear of the property.
With a large front window allowing natural light to flood in, this generous living space offers ample room for comfortable seating and a family dining area, creating a wonderfully light and versatile space for everyday living and entertaining.
The separate kitchen is fitted with a range of traditional wood-effect cabinetry, contrasting worktops and space for appliances, with a rear door providing direct access to the garden.
A useful understairs storage cupboard adds practicality to the ground floor.
Upstairs, the property offers two good-sized double bedrooms, including a generous main bedroom featuring a range of built-in bedroom furniture and fitted wardrobes, providing excellent storage space whilst maximising the available floor area.
The second double bedroom is also well-proportioned and benefits from a useful built-in storage cupboard, while the versatile third bedroom would make an ideal nursery, home office or dressing room.
A shower room, fitted with a corner shower enclosure, wash basin and WC, completes the first-floor accommodation. Outside, the property continues to impress with its generous garden space.
To the front, a good-sized lawned garden is complemented by established planting, a paved pathway leading to the entrance and gated access to the side.
The rear garden is a particular highlight, featuring a substantial lawn, paved seating areas and established shrubs and planting, offering wonderful scope to create a beautifully landscaped outdoor retreat.
A useful garden shed positioned at the bottom of the garden provides additional storage and is included in the sale.
A detached garage provides vehicle accommodation or valuable storage, adding another practical selling point to this property.
South Kirkby is a well-established community offering a good range of local amenities, including shops, supermarkets, schools and everyday services.
The neighbouring towns of South Elmsall, Hemsworth and Pontefract provide further shopping, leisure and recreational facilities, while nearby countryside offers opportunities for walking and outdoor activities.
For commuters, South Elmsall railway station provides rail connections towards Leeds, Wakefield and Doncaster, while the nearby A1(M) and M62 motorway networks offer convenient access to the wider Yorkshire region.
With generous accommodation, excellent outdoor space and fantastic potential to create something special, this is A property well worth viewing!
I've made the two requested amendments while keeping the rest of the advert unchanged: Removed the references to patio doors from the lounge/dining room and added the garden shed, confirming that it is included in the sale.
