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
Do you fancy living in a piece of history? As the former home of Mary Ann Mercer, the first female Mayor of Birkenhead, you have the chance to do that here.
With a Blue Plaque above your front door, you will feel that special glow every time you enter.
A charming 3 bedroom house, with no ongoing chain, this property is ready for you to move into and just start living.
You will obviously want to put your decorative stamp on it over time, but there is no rush.
With two good sized reception rooms, this could be a great first home for a growing family but also a perfect opportunity if you want to get on the property portfolio ladder or to increase your existing offering.
The south facing garden provides the perfect place to relax on a warm day with patio area and borders.
The upstairs is deceptively spacious due to the larger footprint as this floor extends over the entry way.
The space has been used in a very efficient way to ensure that there are three good sized bedrooms, two overlooking the front and the master overlooking the rear garden.
With vacant possession, double glazed throughout and no chain, you will be able to move in at your leisure and begin to enjoy the benefits of this charming property.
Entrance Hall (4.4m x 1.01 (14'5" x 3'3")) Through the wrought iron gate of the front, paved garden and then enter through a glazed, aluminium door into the carpeted hallway.
Sitting Room (3.38m x 3.36m (11'1" x 11'0")) The front sitting room is the first room you come to off the hall. Double glazed window, feature living flame gas fireplace, carpeted and with a radiator.
Lounge (4.49m x 3.29m (14'8" x 10'9")) The rear lounge is a lovely big room with views over the garden. Another living flame gas fireplace, radiator, carpeted and access to an understairs cupboard.
Kitchen (3.54m x 1.88m (11'7" x 6'2")) The kitchen has a number of wall and floor cupboards, white sink and drainer with a monoblock tap.
Worcester boiler, double glazed window and glazed, uPVC door to the garden. Bedroom One (3.39m x 3.09m (11'1" x 10'1")) The stairs are placed between the lounge and sitting room.
The landing leads to the first bedroom at the front of the house. A good sized double with plenty of room for storage. Carpeted, radiator and double glazed window.
Bedroom Two (3.39m x 2.58m (11'1" x 8'5")) The second bedroom also has enough space to fit a double bed but may be better suited to a small double/single or even a home office.
Double glazed and carpeted. Bedroom Three (3.42m x 2.52m (11'2" x 8'3")) The third bedroom overlooking the rear garden has been used as the Master.
A full wall of wardrobes and built in desk and mirror provides plenty of storage space. Still plenty of room for a double bed, this room is also double glazed, carpeted with a radiator.
Shower Room (2.53m x 1.92m (8'3" x 6'3")) The family shower room is part tiled with pedestal basin, low level W.C. And large walk in rectangular shower with glass sliding doors and an electric shower.
Garden The rear garden is laid mainly with paving stones making it fairly low maintenance. With plants in the borders and patio area plus a useful metal shed.
There is an entry way to the side which allows access to the front and rear without going through the house, very useful on bin collection day and for bringing those plants home from the garden centre.
