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
Lovingly styled by the current owners, this two-bedroom Victorian home on Doone Road blends period character with modern comfort.
**Overview** This beautifully refurbished Victorian home presents a classic façade.
Inside, the ground floor feels bright and welcoming, beginning with a stylish living room where there is a log burner and a large bay window that ushers in natural light.
The dining room is the heart of the home and is perfect for entertaining, centred around a charming black cast‐iron fireplace, it boasts wooden floors and thoughtfully arranged shelving that add warmth.
At the rear, the modern kitchen features sleek cabinetry and wood‐effect worktops with ample workspace. A practical utility area and W/C add valuable functionality.
Upstairs, the landing leads to two generous bedrooms.
Bedroom one spans the full width of the property and is filled with natural light from the bay window, with an attractive fireplace and deep green décor adding character.
Bedroom two overlooks the rear garden and features bespoke built‐in storage. The bright and generously sized bathroom is finished in a soft mint palette and features a full‐size bath.
A contemporary shower room is conveniently located on the half‐landing as you ascend towards the loft.
The spacious loft room offers excellent head height and natural light, providing a highly versatile additional space.
**Outside** The rear garden is a private and low‐maintenance space, fully enclosed by tall timber fencing that creates a sheltered, private feel.
A generous paved terrace offers room for outdoor dining and seating, while a small lawned area adds a touch of greenery. At the far end, a gate provides useful rear access to the lane.
**Location** Doone Road is a quiet residential road in Horfield with a lovely community feel that attracts many families to the area.
The property is only a short walk away from the vast array of independent shops, restaurants and transport links that Gloucester Road has to offer.
The green open spaces of Horfield common are nearby, with the ever-popular Horfield Leisure centre also within striking distance.
There are two local pubs right on the doorstep with Inn on the green situated at the top of the road and The Crafty Cow a short walk down Gloucester Road, directly opposite Horfield common.
Filton Abbeywood railway station is located around 1.7 miles from the property, providing a direct link to Bristol Temple Meads and the city centre.
This side of Bristol also offers residents access to the countryside of South Gloucestershire as well as the M4 and M5 motorway.
