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
Some family homes are designed to tick the boxes; this one goes a lot further and gives you plenty to enjoy along the way.
Set within the popular Moorfield area of Kilmarnock, this substantial detached villa offers four bedrooms, excellent living space and beautifully landscaped south-facing gardens, with a few features that make it stand out from the crowd.
At the heart of the home is a fabulous open-plan dining kitchen at the rear, while the garden takes things up another notch with a purpose-built BBQ hut and hot tub area — a rather brilliant setup for everything from summer gatherings with friends to relaxed evenings at home.
The hot tub can stay with house by separate negotiation, giving the next owner the opportunity to take over what is already a fantastic outdoor entertaining space.
Inside, the property has been exceptionally well maintained and is presented in a condition that allows a new owner to simply move in, settle down and enjoy it.
The front-facing lounge provides a comfortable and welcoming main reception room, with plenty of natural light and a layout that works equally well for everyday family life or relaxing at the end of the day.
Moving through to the rear of the property, the dining kitchen is undoubtedly one of its biggest attractions.
Designed with family living in mind, this generous open-plan space provides room for cooking, dining and spending time together, with direct access to the gardens making it particularly useful when entertaining during the warmer months.
The appliances have been recently upgraded with warranties in place, as has the central heating boilerwhich is serviced annually with around 8 years left on the warranty.
The ground floor also benefits from a practical utility room and a separate WC, while the integrated garage provides useful additional storage and secure parking.
Upstairs, all four bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged across the first floor, creating a genuine family-friendly layout with excellent flexibility.
The principal bedroom enjoys the added luxury of its own en-suite shower room, providing a private space away from the rest of the household.
Bedrooms two and three are particularly well catered for, sharing a Jack and Jill-style en-suite shower room which offers convenience and privacy without either room having to rely solely on the main bathroom.
Bedroom four is served by the principal family bathroom, meaning there is no shortage of facilities when the house is operating at full capacity.
The accommodation is well proportioned throughout, with the overall layout making excellent use of the available space and providing plenty of room for a growing family, visiting guests or simply those who want a little more breathing space.
Outside, the gardens deserve particular attention.
Fully landscaped and south facing, they provide a fantastic extension of the living accommodation and have clearly been designed to be used and enjoyed rather than simply admired from the window.
The BBQ hut and hot tub create a fun and sociable focal point, while the surrounding garden offers plenty of space for outdoor seating, dining and relaxing.
It is the sort of garden that could quickly become one of the most-used parts of the property.
Forming part of the Moorfield Development conveniently situated in the heart of Kilmarnock the property is perfectly placed to take advantage of a range of amenities including being within walking distance of the well regarded Annanhill & Gargieston Primary Schools as well as Grange Academy.
Annanhill Golf Course also borders the estate adding to the overall ambiance and providing a lovely, wooded backdrop.
For the commuter the A71 is closeby and links perfectly with the A77 which offers swift access to Glasgow City Centre.
The town centre of Kilmarnock is easily accessible offering an array of dining options, while supermarkets and a diverse range of shops cater to your everyday needs.
A substantial, beautifully maintained detached family home with four bedrooms, excellent living accommodation and an outdoor space that brings something genuinely different to the table — this is a property that deserves to be viewed to fully appreciate everything it has to offer.
