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
Impressive, Five Bedroomed, Semi-Detached, Victorian Home, In A Quiet Cut-De-Sac Near Town Centre.
This is your opportunity to purchase a gorgeous and extremely spacious five bedroomed home in a great location, very quiet and peaceful at the end of a cul de sac, yet walkable to Reading town centre shops and the train station.
This home is vast. Entered via a side door with beautiful stained glass inserts, you are met by a choice of reception rooms, each with traditional open fire places, hardwood floors and high ceilings.
The lounge to the front has a fabulous bay window making a real focal point. The kitchen has a handmade kitchen with oak and granite counter tops and a large oven.
This fabulous room opens out into a great entertaining, dining and family area, with bi-fold doors across the back and velux windows letting light pour in.
There is also a utility room, steam area and downstairs loo.
On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, a large family bathroom and a long landing area, meaning that privacy is no problem here!
On the second floor there are two further bedrooms and a significant amount of storage both in the eaves and the built in cupboards.
The back garden wraps around the side of the home to the back and is surrounded by a wall, meaning that it's very private. It does require some work but you can already see how stunning it could be.
Debbie and Andre's view We are delighted to be bringing this fantastic home to market.
The home offers an abundance of period features which we love, especially the bay window, fire places and stained glass in the front and kitchen doors.
The property has already been enhanced to bring the old and the new together with a significant extension to the rear, providing that all important dining/lounging family room with much coveted bifold doors.
The lounge and second reception rooms offer really flexible living which would suit large families, perhaps requiring a space that can accommodate multi generational living.
The first floor seems to go on forever with the three double bedrooms, large modern bathroom and endless landing space.
There is ample opportunity to make this home even more amazing than it already is as there is also possibility of reconfiguration on the top floor to make a gorgeous suite with dressing room and bathroom.
The location here is great, it is close enough to be able to walk to the town centre, local schools and the train station, yet is in a super peaceful cul de sac.
There may be a little work required, but this delightful home has been priced to sell and would suit a family wanting a spacious home in a great location or perhaps an investor looking to create living space for multiple tenants.
