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
There’s something appealing about a house that gives you room to work with.
This one is already generous in size, and because it’s currently unoccupied, you can start shaping it to suit your own style.
Set within an established part of Nairn, it offers good natural light and gardens to both front and rear. As you arrive you find a pretty section of lawn sitting to the front of the house.
Inside, the living room immediately shows you the scale on offer. It’s a large space with a wide window that floods the room with plenty of natural light throughout the day.
Three walls are painted in a neutral cream, while a bold floral feature wall adds colour and personality. A storage heater is mounted neatly on this wall, too.
Light grey carpet runs underfoot, softening the room and making it feel comfortable straight away.
There’s more than enough space here to accommodate your sofa and additional furniture without it feeling tight. To the rear, of the home is the dining kitchen area.
The kitchen itself is fitted with light wood coloured cabinets and white worktops, keeping the space bright.
A built in oven sits below an electric hob, while a stainless steel sink is positioned beneath the window, giving you a view of the gardening while you’re washing up.
White painted walls and neutral tiling around the worktop areas keep things bright and easy to clean.
To the side, there’s a defined space for a dining table and chairs, with another large window here bringing in additional light.
An electric heater is mounted in this space to ensure the room stays warm during colder months. Upstairs, the proportions continue. The largest bedroom is a generous double.
Neutral walls and light grey carpet keep the space simple and adaptable. There’s plenty of room here for a full bedroom suite with a wall mounted heater to ensure it stays comfortable.
The window allows for good natural light without feeling overlooked. Bedroom two is another double, finished in light painted tones with green carpet underfoot.
A wide window keeps this room well lit, and a built in storage cupboard keeps everyday items tucked away neatly.
An electric heater is positioned near the door, maintaining warmth without taking up valuable wall space. Bedroom three is a smaller one, but still extremely useful.
Cream painted walls and a darker carpet give it contrast. It works well as a child’s room, nursery or home office depending on what you need.
There’s also a small built in cupboard here too, which is always welcome. The home also benefits from a wet room, which is practical in design.
Light coloured wetwall panels line the walls, and there’s a walk in shower area fitted with curtain and guards.
A sink and toilet are neatly arranged within the space, while a long, slim window set high on the wall allows natural light in while maintaining privacy.
Outside, the rear garden offers a paved patio area directly outside the back door, giving you somewhere to sit out during warmer months.
Beyond this, the garden is mainly laid to lawn and is enclosed by timber fencing. There’s an existing timber shed in place, providing outdoor storage for your items.
The space is simple, manageable and ready for someone to make it their own.
With electric off-peak storage heating supported by additional instantaneous heaters, and UPVC double glazed windows and doors already in place, the fundamentals are all covered.
What you’re really buying here is space, light and the chance to shape a home around your own ideas.
