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
Situated within the ever-popular residential area of Lipson, just a stone's throw from Freedom Fields Park, this substantial four-storey Victorian mid-terrace residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home brimming with character, period charm and enormous potential.
Having been lovingly maintained over the years, the property retains an abundance of original features whilst offering exceptionally versatile accommodation that could suit a growing family, those looking for multi-generational living, or purchasers seeking a home with income potential.
From the moment you step inside, the property's impressive proportions are immediately apparent.
A welcoming entrance hall showcases many of the home's original Victorian features, including decorative stained-glass windows, the original servant call bell system and traditional gas lamp fittings mounted to the chimney breasts, all combining to create a wonderful sense of history and character.
The ground floor provides generous living accommodation comprising a spacious lounge with an attractive bay window, a separate dining room overlooking the garden, and a large kitchen/breakfast room offering ample workspace and storage.
Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room with access to a downstairs shower room, providing excellent practicality for modern family living.
Arranged over the upper floors are five well-proportioned bedrooms.
Two of the bedrooms benefit from beautiful bay windows, with elevated views stretching across Plymouth towards Plymouth Sound, whilst another enjoys French doors opening onto a private roof terrace, creating a wonderful space to sit and enjoy the outlook.
The principal family bathroom serves the first floor accommodation and complements the additional ground floor shower room.
Occupying the uppermost floor is an impressive loft conversion, currently arranged as a self-contained studio apartment.
This fantastic space incorporates a mezzanine sleeping area, a four-piece bathroom suite and access to a private balcony, where spectacular panoramic views can be enjoyed across Plymouth, reaching out towards Plymouth Sound.
Whether utilised as guest accommodation, a teenager's retreat, home office or potential income-generating space (subject to any necessary consents), this area offers exceptional versatility.
Externally, the property continues to impress with a generous rear garden enclosed by attractive stone walls, creating a private outdoor space ideal for families and entertaining.
The garden backs directly onto Freedom Fields Park, providing a peaceful green backdrop that is rarely available so close to the city centre.
