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.

Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved by the current owners over the past 14 years, the property is ideal for couples, young families or those looking to downsize without compromise.
The welcoming entrance hall features stylish grey lvt wood-effect flooring and provides access to all principal rooms.
The spacious living room is well presented, enjoying a large bay window that floods the room with natural light, together with a contemporary gas fire creating a cosy focal point.

The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and overlooks the private rear garden, while the second bedroom is tastefully decorated in neutral tones with a picture rail adding character.
The modern family bathroom has also been updated and comprises a panelled bath with mixer tap, overhead rainfall shower, vanity wash basin with mixer tap, WC, heated towel rail, LED illuminated mirror and contemporary lvt flooring.

To the front is a generous driveway providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles alongside a lawned garden with mature trees, shrubs and planted borders.
The beautifully landscaped rear garden is undoubtedly a highlight, featuring a raised decked seating area overlooking the garden, an Indian stone flagged patio, well-stocked flower beds, greenhouse and mature planting, creating a peaceful and private setting.
Side access and direct access to neighbouring playing fields further enhance the appeal.
