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.

The property has been cleared and is now vacant, making it an ideal purchase for buyers looking for a straightforward move, a project with scope to improve, or a bungalow in a popular village location.

The layout includes a central entrance hall, a spacious sitting room, and a separate kitchen with practical worktop space and storage.

To the rear, the property enjoys a good-sized garden with a paved patio area immediately outside the home and a larger lawned section beyond.
The garden is currently in a natural/overgrown state and would benefit from landscaping, but it offers excellent potential to create a private outdoor space.
A selection of outbuildings/sheds are positioned to the rear boundary, providing useful storage.
Overall, this is a great value-for-money bungalow in a peaceful setting, with strong potential to modernise and add your own stamp, all within easy reach of Sawston’s local amenities and excellent commuter links.
