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
An attractive extended three bedroom semi-detached home offering versatile family accommodation, a good size garden and ample off road parking.
19 Orchid Close is an attractive and well-presented 1950s semi-detached home, which has been extended to the rear to create additional and versatile family living space.
The accommodation opens into a welcoming entrance hall, with a useful downstairs WC and access through to the main living areas.
The sitting room provides a comfortable space to relax, while the kitchen/breakfast room offers plenty of room for everyday family life.
A particular feature of the ground floor is the rear extension, which overlooks the garden and provides an excellent additional reception space.
Currently used as a playroom/dining room, it could equally work well as a family room, home office or more formal dining area.
Upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms together with the family bathroom, making this a practical and appealing home for couples and growing families alike.
Orchid Close is situated within a popular residential area of Taunton, conveniently positioned for access to the town centre and a range of local amenities.
Schools, shops and everyday facilities are within easy reach, while Taunton offers a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and recreational facilities.
The location is also well placed for commuters, with access to the M5 motorway and Taunton's mainline railway station providing connections further afield.
To the rear is an enclosed garden, predominantly laid to lawn with a patio area providing space for outdoor seating and dining.
A pergola adds further character and creates an attractive spot to enjoy the garden during the warmer months.
Side access leads to the single garage, which has been subdivided to create a useful additional room with a side window.
This offers excellent potential for use as a home office, hobby room or workspace, subject to any necessary consents. To the front, there is off road parking for approximately two to three vehicles.
