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.

The property is offered for sale chain-free.
The property is accessed via a stained-glass front door, which opens into a spacious entrance hallway with useful under-stairs storage and a staircase leading to the first floor.
The lounge features an attractive bay window, allowing plenty of natural light to flood the room, while a log-burning stove creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for cosy evenings during the colder months.
The separate dining room overlooks the rear garden and adjoins a good-sized fitted kitchen, which provides ample storage, generous worktop space and room for a breakfast table.
A door from the kitchen opens onto the rear patio, creating an ideal space for alfresco dining during the summer months.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to two double bedrooms and a single bedroom, all served by a modern shower room featuring a walk-in shower.
Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking to the front for a minimum of two vehicles. Double gates provide access to a single garage, offering useful storage space.
The rear garden begins with a patio area, with steps leading down to a formal garden.
A charming wisteria-covered pergola leads through to the remainder of the garden, which features a vegetable patch and a more natural, wild area, offering a variety of spaces for gardening enthusiasts and those who enjoy spending time outdoors.
