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
Set within a well-established setting, this detached five-bedroom 1974 built home, has been lovingly cared for, for 22 years offering a blend of character, comfort, and practical family living.
To the front, a block paved driveway provides parking for up to three vehicles, alongside a lawned garden with a central tree and mature planting, including a magnolia and ivy-clad frontage.
A storm porch with pillar detailing and terrazzo tiled flooring leads into the entrance hall, where wooden flooring and a staircase with a wooden banister set the tone.
The ground floor offers a well-balanced layout. Straight ahead, the open plan living dining kitchen forms the heart of the home, featuring an island with wooden worktop, storage and seating space.
The kitchen is fitted with granite work surfaces, a Franke sink positioned beneath a window overlooking the east-facing garden, and a range of integrated appliances including a CDA microwave, two Siemens ovens, Siemens gas hob and extractor, plus a full-size dishwasher.
There is also space for a large American-style fridge freezer.
The dining area is complemented by matching cabinetry and enjoys views of the garden through two windows and French doors opening onto a brick paved patio.
Wood-effect LVT flooring runs throughout, and a charming small arched window adds character.
To the left of the hallway is a dual aspect living room, featuring a bay window to the front, gas fire with Cotswold limestone mantle and surround, and French doors to the rear garden.
This versatile space is currently arranged as a lounge to the front and a music room/office to the rear.
Right of the entrance, the former garage has been converted into an additional reception room and is currently used as a snug, complete with spotlights and a large bay window.
This room leads to a downstairs WC, space for utility appliances, and a separate boiler room and works well as a ground floor bedroom if necessary.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with five well-proportioned bedrooms.
To the rear, bedroom five benefits from fitted wardrobes, while bedroom four is a comfortable double overlooking the garden.
The main bathroom features porcelain tiling, a bath, separate large shower, and two side windows providing natural light. To the front, bedroom three includes fitted wardrobes and a dressing table.
Bedroom two is a particularly spacious room with a walk-through wardrobe area, additional storage, and potential to create an ensuite.
The principal bedroom is positioned to the rear, enjoying views over the garden, plenty of space for wardrobes, and an ensuite shower room with porcelain tiled flooring, rainfall and handheld shower, and a side window.
A notable feature of this room is access to a loft space with a skylight and boarded storage, along with further eaves storage, an unusual and highly practical addition.
Externally, the rear garden is east-facing and thoughtfully arranged, with a brick paved patio and a circular seating area beside a wooden shed.
The garden is well stocked with planting including camellia, pear and plum trees, climbing roses, jasmine and honeysuckle, creating a pleasant outdoor setting.
Additional benefits include side access with a secure gate, and external power points to both the front and rear, along with outside lighting including under the storm porch.
Further features include understairs storage with shelving, a partly boarded and insulated loft above the landing, and a layout ideally suited to modern family living.
A well-maintained and adaptable home, offering generous space and versatile accommodation throughout, the home combines practical living with a welcoming feel.
