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
This four bedroom family home is presented in very good decorative order throughout and is situated in one of Orpington's finest roads and conveniently located within half a mile of the town centre and 0.75m of the mainline station (c.16 minutes fast service to London).
Furthermore, arguably one of the country's finest grammar schools - St. Olave's - is located in the road.
Having been extended to the side, rear and into the loft, the accommodation is arranged over three floors and includes a modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room, double glazed conservatory and master bedroom with en suite.
The property also benefits from a detached single garage and south facing rear garden.
Orpington is a thriving suburban town within the M25 and therefore ideally situated for access to the motorway network and the railway stations that can transport you into London in as little as 17 minutes.
Both Orpington station and Chelsfield station have fast direct services in to the city and are 0.75 miles and 0.85 miles away respectively.
The town centre (just half a mile away) has a comprehensive range of shops and facilities including the Walnuts Shopping Centre and Odeon cinema.
Sports facilities are also well catered for with the Walnuts Leisure Centre, golf courses, football and rugby clubs all within the area.
A little way out of town you will find larger stores at the Nugent Retail Park along with electrical superstores, furniture shops and DIY centres along the Sevenoaks Way.
Shopping centres at Bluewater and Bromley can also be found within 10 miles drive or bus ride.
