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.

To the front, a private driveway provides off-street parking and leads to a single garage. Ravensbourne Avenue is a highly desirable and convenient residential road, ideally positioned approx.
5 minutes’ walk to Shortlands station, offering excellent transport links into Central London.
