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: This chain free detached home occupies an attractive position on Wolsey Road and offers well-balanced accommodation arranged over two floors, with a number of original arts & crafts features still in place and clear potential for extension, subject to planning permission.
The entrance opens into a generous hallway, which immediately sets the tone for the house, with original doors, useful understairs storage, an alarm system and a ground floor cloakroom.

Double doors lead through to a substantial dining room overlooking the rear garden, with further dual aspect windows and French doors opening out onto the patio, making it a natural room for both everyday use and entertaining.
A further reception room provides additional flexibility and could suit a sitting room, study or family room, depending on requirements.

There is space for a breakfast table, together with a gas hob, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer and American-style fridge freezer.
A side door provides access out, while an internal door leads through to the integral garage.
The garage itself is a useful and versatile space, complete with electric up-and-over door, radiator, window, consumer unit and gas-fired boiler.

There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both benefiting from fitted wardrobes, while the principal bedroom is positioned to the front and offers an excellent range of storage together with access to a dressing room or nursery area and an en suite shower room.

The rear garden is another notable feature, with a large patio area well suited to outdoor dining and entertaining, an expanse of lawn, mature borders and planting, and a further section of garden beyond which lends itself well to a more natural or rewilded approach if desired.
The property offers excellent scope for improvement and enlargement, subject to the necessary consents.
