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 extended and beautifully refurbished four bedroom semi-detached home sits on the sought after Kennet Lea development, just a short walk from Thatcham station.
The current owners have transformed the property throughout, creating a stylish, high specification home with generous living space and a contemporary finish.
The ground floor features a superb open plan family area with 3.6m aluminium bi-folding doors to the garden, solar powered Velux skylights and Porcelanosa tiling.
The kitchen includes integrated appliances and connects to the lounge via a striking AluSpace aluminium internal door installed in 2024.
Upstairs are four well proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully finished bathroom with digital bath and shower controls, mirrored in the downstairs cloakroom for a consistent design.
The property has undergone extensive upgrades including new double glazed windows, a composite front door, full electrical rewire, new consumer unit, a relocated gas combi boiler with Nest smart thermostat, a complete central heating system with new pipework and radiators, and a fully boarded loft with lighting and power.
Additional enhancements include matching chrome switches and sockets with USB points, CAT6a network cabling to a centralised cabinet, smart gas and electric meters, and a new electric roller garage door with remote fobs.
The rear garden is enclosed with new closeboard fencing.
Outside, the home benefits from an attached garage, ample driveway parking and a private rear garden, making it an ideal turnkey property in a prime location close to transport links, schools and local amenities.
