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
RL0918 - At first glance, 140 Beckfield Lane is an attractive detached family home in one of Acomb's most sought-after locations.
Step inside, however, and you'll discover a property offering far more than first impressions suggest.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall leading to a bright bay-fronted lounge with an open fireplace, creating a warm and comfortable space to relax.
To the rear, a separate dining room enjoys French doors opening onto the garden and flows seamlessly into the extended kitchen, which has been thoughtfully upgraded with composite worktops, a five-ring gas hob, built-in double oven, integrated dishwasher and generous storage.
What truly sets this home apart is the incredibly versatile rear wing.
Beyond the kitchen, a rear lobby provides access to a ground-floor shower room and opens via French doors onto the decked seating area.
Continue through and you'll find a separate sitting room followed by a generous fourth bedroom with its own French doors opening directly onto the garden.
This flexible arrangement is ideal for multi-generational living, an older relative, a teenager wanting their own space, regular guests or anyone working from home.
It offers privacy and independence while remaining connected to the main house.
Upstairs are three further bedrooms, including two spacious doubles and a well-proportioned single, together with the family bathroom.
The property also benefits from an exceptionally useful loft space, which has been fully boarded and carpeted with a Velux window, pull-down ladder and power, providing excellent additional space for hobbies, storage or working from home.
Outside, the west-facing rear garden enjoys afternoon and evening sunshine and offers an excellent balance of lawn and entertaining space, with newly installed decking connecting beautifully to the house via multiple sets of French doors.
The layout of neighbouring gardens also creates an impressive level of privacy. To the front, farmyard-style gates open onto a gravel driveway providing parking for at least two vehicles.
The current owners have also invested in cavity wall insulation and loft insulation, while the combination boiler has been serviced annually, providing reassurance for future owners.
Located on the ever-popular Beckfield Lane, the property is within easy reach of Acomb's excellent range of shops, cafés, schools and everyday amenities, while York city centre and the outer ring road provide excellent connectivity for commuting further afield.
Homes offering this level of flexibility rarely come to market, making this a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking for a home that can adapt as life changes.
