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.

From the moment I viewed the house back in 1988 and saw the potential of the garden from upstairs in the back bedroom, I was sold!
Our garden has hosted so many memorable gatherings, mostly our daughter's birthday parties, it's a lovely space!
I am going to miss the quiet location and lovely setting, watching the sun go down from the kitchen window and my great neighbours, but it's time to move on." Set behind a lawned front garden with off-road parking for multiple cars, this is the kind of home that instantly feels warm and welcoming from the moment you step through the door.
The entrance porch opens into a spacious hallway, adding to the relaxed, family-friendly feel that runs throughout the property.
At the front of the house, the dining room is full of character with its bay window and decorative fireplace, creating a lovely space for everything from busy weekday breakfasts to long Sunday lunches with friends and family.
To the rear, the lounge is perfectly positioned to enjoy views over the garden, with a feature fireplace adding to the cosy atmosphere.
The glazed door and bay window allow natural light to pour in and create an easy connection between inside and out during the warmer months.
The kitchen has been extended in the past, creating a little more space for both the kitchen and utility area.
The kitchen currently has units above and below the worktop, alongside an integrated fridge, electric oven and hob, and space for a dishwasher.
The utility room provides useful additional storage and laundry space, while also giving access to both the rear garden and garage.
Upstairs, the bedrooms offer a flexible layout that works brilliantly for couples, young families or anyone needing home-working space.
The principal bedroom at the front features a bay window and built-in wardrobes either side of the chimney breast, while the second double bedroom at the rear enjoys fantastic far-reaching views.
The third bedroom would make an ideal nursery, dressing room or home office depending on your needs. The bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower above, washbasin and WC.
Outside is where this home really begins to shine.
The rear garden is incredibly private and a fantastic size, offering plenty of space for children to play, keen gardeners to enjoy, or simply somewhere to unwind at the end of the day.
The patio directly outside the living room is the perfect spot for a morning coffee or evening drink in the sun, while the lawns and established flowerbeds create a peaceful, green backdrop.
With such a generous plot, there is also exciting potential to extend further in the future, subject to the necessary permissions and consents.
