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
Refitted and extended with super decor styling, a lovely four bedroom semi-detached property, in the heart of Black Tom, with Bedford Park a short walk away.
Iron railings, beautiful tiling, herringbone floor, wood burning stove, exposed floorboards, double bay window, plantation shutters and a wonderful open plan kitchen dining room.
The house has been transformed and offers, a double gated front garden with tiling leading to the front door.
Herringbone flooring starts in the entrance hall and flows through to the back of the house. The living room, at the front of the house, has a wood burning stove and bay window to the front.
A comfortable size room, that can be closed off from the rest of the ground floor. The snug/ playroom has a pretty fireplace and exposed brick wall, and is open to the wonderful kitchen area.
Quartz marble style worktop and green cabinets. A peninsular with breakfast bar and three pendant lights hanging over.
Behind, a bank of cupboards with concealed appliances and an abundance of storage. The dining room has anthracite French doors and a picture window to the garden and patio.
A utility room sits further back in the house, with a door to the garden and a cloakroom at the back of the property.
On the first floor, the main bedroom is a king size room, with drenched colour over the fireplace, wardrobes and walls. A chic bedroom with bay window and shutters to the outside world.
Bedroom two has a fireplace and is a good double bedroom. There is a further large single bedroom, currently a study and a four piece bathroom with tongue and groove panelling, completing this floor.
The top floor is one large bedroom.
There are three Velux windows, to flood it with natural light and storage cupboard - which could be converted to an en suite if required, as there is plenty of room.
Outside the second gate at the front, leads to a gated alleyway and the rear garden, which enjoys a high degree of privacy.
There is an outside kitchen area for bbq's and a patio for enjoying a moment in the outdoors. The back half of the space is mainly lawn with a raised brick planter to the side and storage shed.
Located close to two great cafes, two pubs, multiple convenience stores and Bedford Park with its mature tree lined 62 acres, including lake, tennis courts, cricket and football pitches, children's play area, swimming pool and gym.
The train station is about a mile away, Harpur Trust schooling closer and town closer still.
