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
Having undergone a series of improvements by the current owners, this split-level freehold house comprises a modern kitchen with ample storage and integrated appliances to the front of the house.
At the rear of the property is a bright and spacious open-plan lounge and dining room with a built-in bespoke entertainment unit and a well-crafted home office space.
Through the French doors of the lounge is a landscaped, low-maintenance garden boasting a pergola at the back, ideal for barbecuing and providing shady relief from the sun on hotter days.
Upstairs, off the sizeable landing, are two generously proportioned bedrooms with chic plantation-style shutters and more than enough space for a chest of drawers, a dressing table, and a freestanding wardrobe.
The shared family bathroom is a modern three-piece suite comprising a panelled bath with shower screen, wash hand basin, and low-level WC.
Above the landing is access to a loft space which has been insulated, boarded, and fitted with electricity and lighting, making it ideal for storage or as an unofficial additional office.
The house benefits from double glazing and an efficient gas heating system, providing a high energy rating.
The property further benefits from a downstairs WC and has allocated parking at the front of the house.
