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
Only four years old, this first floor flat on Orchard Road, Buckie is a modern two bedroom place with fresh, bright interiors.
It would make a great first home, suit a couple looking for something easy to move into or work equally well if you are considering a modern rental property.
The property is part of a small block, with your own entrance vestibule at ground level.
From here, a grey carpeted staircase rises to the first floor, where light grey/blue walls, white doors and matching frames give the hallway a clean look.
The main living space is a good size, with light pink coloured walls and a light grey carpet. A wide window looks out across the surrounding homes and floods the room with daylight.
There’s plenty of floor area for a sofa suite as well as a dining table and other furniture.
Through a large opening the lounge leads into the kitchen, which has a crisp modern finish with glossy light coloured cabinets, dark grey wood effect worktops and matching side panels and kick strip.
A built-in Zanussi oven is set beneath a Zanussi electric hob, with a microwave fitted above. The black composite sink and drainer sits alongside, while a second window looks out beside the kitchen.
Bedroom one has light blue walls and grey carpet, with a built-in wardrobe behind mirror fronted sliding doors.
There’s plenty of space around the room for a double bed, drawers and bedside furniture without making the room feel crowded.
Bedroom two follows a similar layout, this time with light pink walls and another wide mirrored wardrobe built into one side.
A window fills the opposite wall, while a pair of small corner shelves gives you a little extra display space too.
The bathroom is decorated with large grey wall tiles mixed with striking grey striped feature tiling around the bath. A shower is fitted above with a clear glass screen to the side.
There’s a small white wall hung vanity unit with two deep drawers beneath the basin with the toilet and chrome flush plate next to it. A tall chrome towel radiator completes the modern finish.
The flat has uPVC double glazing and a hybrid heating system combining a gas boiler with an air source heat pump.
Outside, there is communal parking along with shared garden ground around the building, including lawn, paved and chipped areas. A timber store also provides useful additional storage.
If you’ve been looking for a modern, move-in ready home, then 19 Orchard Road needs to be on your viewing list.
