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
The Property: This is a magnificent, detached family home in a particularly attractive position with a south-west facing garden.
Set in the corner of a small enclave of only four houses in the lower part of Badger Farm, it is a quiet and private location.
The property opens into the entrance hall with downstairs cloakroom and access into the well-proportioned sitting room. The dining room leads to the wonderful rear conservatory.
The kitchen has been re-fitted with a range of contemporary units and enjoys a large built-in larder. There is a study/family room which is a really versatile space giving access to the rear garden.
The first floor has a principal bedroom with ensuite shower room, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Externally the property has driveway parking to the front for up to three cars and access to the integrated single garage.
The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped with a paved patio terrace immediately behind the house that leads onto a generous, square lawned area, enveloped by well-stocked flower and shrub borders.
