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
HS Owen Estate Agents are delighted to bring to the market this substantial detached residence, quietly positioned within a desirable cul-de-sac in the heart of Wellswood Village.

The ground floor comprises a welcoming lounge with an opening through to the dining area, a bright sun room, kitchen, two utility rooms, three bedrooms and a family bathroom with both a bath and separate shower cubicle, together with a separate WC.
Two of the ground-floor bedrooms have more recently been utilised as additional reception rooms, highlighting the adaptable nature of the accommodation and allowing the layout to be configured to suit individual requirements.
To the first floor, a particularly spacious landing provides access to two further bedrooms and an additional bathroom.

The gardens are a particular feature, offering an exceptional degree of privacy and a peaceful setting.
The gated driveway provides ample parking and leads to a double garage situated towards the top of the drive.
