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
Ref:NS01 Large Ground Floor Retirement Apartment with Private Patio Access.
A rare opportunity to acquire one of the larger one-bedroom apartments within the highly regarded Elliott Court retirement development, exclusively for the over 60s.
Positioned on the ground floor with direct access onto a private patio and communal gardens, this spacious apartment offers independent living with the reassurance of an established retirement community and on-site support.

A 24-hour emergency call system provides additional peace of mind. Residents must be aged 60 or over.

Bishops Stortford railway station provides direct services into London Liverpool Street and Cambridge, making it ideal for visiting family and friends. Bus routes and local amenities are also nearby.
