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
A four bedroom, three reception room detached house (circa 2666 sq. ft) situated in a secluded and private plot within an exclusive country lane in the highly regarded village of Abbots Leigh.
Summary - The Ridings has had only one ownership since its conception in 1978 and has served the vendors extremely well as a very happy, longstanding family home.
This sale now offers an incoming purchaser the opportunity to style and appoint the property to their own requirements as desired.
One of the most predominant features of this very special family home are the sizable, landscaped gardens to both the front and rear, the former of which offers a gated driveway approach, that in turn leads to integral garaging and the latter complete with a covered sun terrace and ornate summer house.
Upon entering the house a most welcoming, spacious entrance hallway presents a short flight of stairs up to a most impressive, bay fronted living room, measuring around 7 x 6 meters taking full advantage of a delightful outlook over the front garden.
At first floor level, the bedrooms to the front also enjoy a similar, pleasing outlook over the front garden and lawn.
It cannot be ignored, as has been the case with many of the neighbouring houses in Harris Lane, that the property holds potential to extend further subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
Lastly, it should be noted that this property is being sold with the advantage of having no onward chain.
Location - Abbots Leigh is regarded by many as one of the most sought-after villages on the outskirts of the city with its own church, public house and village hall all being within half a mile of the property.
Clifton Village is situated approximately two miles away across the world-famous Clifton Suspension Bridge and the city centre approximately three and a half miles.
Junction 19 of the M5 gives access to the UK motorway network and can be found within four miles and Bristol International Airport around nine miles.
A variety of beautiful walks including Abbots Pool and The Avon Gorge (a designated area of special scientific interest and natural beauty) are on offer quite literally from the doorstep.
The area is particularly well served for schooling in both the state and private sectors.
Important Note - Hydes of Bristol and any joint agents give notice that (i) they have no authority to make or give representations or warranties in relation to the property.
These particulars do not form part of any offer or contract and must not be relied upon as statements or representations of fact. (ii) Any areas, distances or measurements are approximate.

Purchasers must satisfy themselves by inspection or otherwise.
(iii) In accordance with the consumer protection from unfair trading regulations, please note that the working condition of these services, or kitchen appliances has not been checked by the Agents but at the time of taking particulars we were informed that all were in working order.
Please also note that current government legislation demands that as selling agents for this property, Hydes Of Bristol require written evidence of the origin/source of finance for funding for any prospective purchaser wishing to purchase this property.
This confirmation shall be required prior to the vendor entering into any contract of sale and our instructions from the vendor are to this effect.
