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
Tucked away in an elevated position off Nackington Road is this superb bespoke Tudor style detached residence set in 0.3586 of an acre.
Built about 37 years ago it has never since been on the market as the current owners bought it from new.
A private drive passing two other properties leads to a spacious parking area, the double garage with automatic doors, an attached workshop and the front entrance.
It has great external appeal and this appeal continues as you walk into the impressive double height entrance hall with a coat cupboard, galleried landing and natural light flowing through the large window.
There is a charming dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room with a range cooker, hand built solid wood units with marble worktops housing high end appliances, a large breakfast bar and a glazed wall and door to a snug as well as a pantry, an adjacent utility room with access to the garage and a shower room.
A study has engineered oak flooring and French doors to the garden while the stunning triple aspect lounge has a five-sided bay with French doors to the rear terrace, French windows to a separate patio and a brick chimney breast with a log burner and an archway to the spacious dual aspect dining area.
The workshop could be used for other purposes as it has French doors at each end and is fully insulated with lighting and power.
The galleried landing includes a double airing cupboard and access to the excellent family bathroom.
There are two single bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and three double bedrooms including two with fitted wardrobes and ensuite bathrooms.
While the stunning primary bedroom features a dressing room with fitted cupboards, a separate hobby room and a gorgeous en suite.
The garden backs on to school playing fields and includes a wraparound lawn and pathway, trees, a large shrub bed and is surrounded by hedges including some more than 100 years old.
There is also the pergola covered patio and a separate building with three bi-fold doors, engineered oak flooring, fitted cupboards, power and lighting that is currently used as a gym but would also make an ideal office, games room or bar.
What the Owner says: We were very fortunate to originally secure this lovely home.
It has been a wonderful environment for our family and, as our children are keen cricketers, living opposite the Kent Country Cricket ground has been a real bonus.
It is very quiet and peaceful and we are close to the countryside but also near excellent grammar schools and it's only a short walk to the city centre.
Canterbury includes historic buildings, high street stores, independent shops, restaurants and bars and two mainline stations with fast trains from Canterbury West taking less than an hour.
There are also two theatres and a cinema complex, three universities, top class private schools, two hospitals and various sporting facilities.
