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
Waverley Lodge is a substantial and well presented detached family home, offering particularly spacious and versatile accommodation in a wonderful setting within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Extending to approximately 2,443 sq ft in total, including the garage, the accommodation is broadly balanced across its two floors and can provide either four or five bedrooms.
A generous entrance hall creates an immediate sense of space and leads into an impressive front-to-back sitting room.
This excellent reception room measures almost 23 feet in length and features an attractive fireplace, together with doors opening directly onto the garden.
An additional ground-floor room provides an ideal large home office, playroom or fifth bedroom, allowing the house to adapt easily to changing family requirements.
At the heart of the property is the spacious open-plan kitchen/family room, which provides clearly defined cooking, breakfast and relaxed seating areas.
The fitted kitchen includes extensive cabinetry, generous work surfaces, a breakfast bar and twin integrated ovens.
Adjoining this space is a bright and welcoming orangery, currently arranged as a dining room.
Measuring approximately 16'7" by 11'3", it benefits from a large roof lantern, extensive glazing and doors opening onto the garden, creating an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining.
The ground floor is completed by a utility room, cloakroom and internal access into the oversized integral garage. On the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms.
The principal bedroom is a generous double with its own dressing room and en-suite bathroom.
Double doors open onto a Juliet balcony, from which there are delightful views across the gardens, adjoining fields and rolling hills beyond.
The second bedroom is another particularly large double and also benefits from an en-suite, while bedroom three provides a further generous double.
Bedroom four measures approximately 11'10" by 7' and, although presently described as a single room, is large enough to accommodate a double bed if required.
A separate family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation. The gardens are unusually arranged but exceptionally usable.
Immediately to the rear of the house is a landscaped area with two separate places to sit and dine, including a particularly attractive terrace from which to enjoy the open rural outlook.
The side garden provides a level lawn, further seating area and summer house, making it an ideal space for children, outdoor games or a trampoline.
To the front, the extensive driveway provides off-road parking for approximately five or six vehicles and leads to the oversized garage.
Despite its setting and beautiful countryside views, Waverley Lodge remains conveniently placed for Leckhampton, the shops, cafés and restaurants of Bath Road and Cheltenham town centre.
The property lies within the highly regarded Leckhampton High School catchment area and also offers convenient access to Shurdington Road, the A417 and Air Balloon junction, together with routes towards the M5.
