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
Freehold four bedroom detached family home | Recently built orangery extension | Direct access to public fields A beautifully presented freehold four bedroom detached family home with no onward chain, positioned within a highly desirable family estate with open green spaces, countryside outlooks and direct access to large public fields to the side and rear, making it an excellent choice for families, walkers and dog owners.
The home offers around 100 sq m of measured internal living space, with a well planned layout across two floors, generous driveway parking, an attached garage and a recently built rear orangery extension that has transformed the way the property connects with the garden.
Ground Floor The entrance hall gives a welcoming first impression, with access to the main living spaces, ground floor WC and staircase to the first floor.
To the front, the living room is a comfortable and well proportioned space with a bay window adding natural light.
The separate dining and sitting room provides further flexibility, ideal for family meals, entertaining or a more formal reception area.
To the rear, the kitchen is a real hub of the home, fitted with modern white units, wood effect worktops, integrated oven, breakfast island seating and plenty of storage.
From here, the layout flows beautifully into the recently built orangery extension, one of the standout features of the home.
With a glazed roof, full height glazing, wide doors to the garden and excellent natural light, this is a superb everyday living space that works equally well for relaxing, hosting and enjoying views over the garden.
First Floor The first floor offers four bedrooms, giving the property excellent flexibility for family life.
There are three well proportioned bedrooms, along with a fourth bedroom that would work well as a nursery, dressing room or home office.
The family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower screen, WC and wash basin, finished with attractive tiling and a fresh, practical layout.
Outside Externally, the property continues to perform strongly. To the front there is a block paved driveway providing off road parking, along with access to the attached garage.
The rear garden has been designed for ease and enjoyment, with artificial lawn, patio seating areas and secure boundaries.
It is a practical space for children, pets and outdoor dining, while the direct access to large public fields to the side and rear gives the home a real lifestyle advantage, especially for buyers with dogs.
