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
Offering excellent potential for modernisation, Cramalt presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to create a home tailored to their own tastes.
Set within generous garden grounds with beautiful rolling countryside views to the rear, this detached bungalow enjoys a peaceful setting and offers fantastic scope for refurbishment and future enhancement.
A welcoming entrance porch opens into a spacious reception hall, leading through to the principal sitting room, which enjoys a large bay window and an open fireplace (subject to the necessary checks), currently fitted with an electric heater.
A second bay-fronted reception room offers excellent flexibility and could equally serve as an additional bedroom, home office or family room and also benefits from a bay window and chimney.
The accommodation includes three further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate shower room, providing a practical layout for a variety of buyers.
To the rear of the property, the dining room connects to the galley-style kitchen, which in turn provides access to a side porch, a useful utility/boiler room with additional storage, and the rear garden.
Freestanding appliances may be available by separate negotiation. A door from the dining room leads to a generous loft room, accessed via a fixed ladder with handrail.
Benefitting from a Velux window and extensive eaves storage, this space offers excellent potential for conversion into further accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consents.
There is also the possibility of incorporating dormer windows to maximise the available space and further enhance the wonderful countryside views.
Externally, the generous gardens are a particular feature, with mature fruit trees, established hedging providing a good degree of privacy, and uninterrupted views across the surrounding rolling countryside.
A convenient detached conservatory provides a versatile space to enjoy the garden throughout the seasons, while a lean-to store, garden shed and detached garage offer excellent external storage.
The private gated driveway provides ample off-street parking for several vehicles.
