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
This beautifully presented apartment forms part of an attractive conversion above a historic public house, blending character with contemporary design.
Occupying the top floor, the property enjoys an elevated position, offering a wonderful sense of privacy, tranquillity, and far reaching views across the surrounding area and Home Park.
The property is accessed via a decked roof terrace, creating a welcoming approach and an immediate sense of separation from the outside world.
This elevated entrance not only enhances privacy but also offers an attractive outdoor setting, ideal for a morning coffee.
Internally the apartment boasts generous living space, thoughtfully designed for modern living.
At its heart is an impressive kitchen dining room, flooded with warm natural light from multiple windows, with ample room to lounge, cook and host, this space is perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.
A second reception room provides an inviting space to retreat in the evening and can also easily adapt into a third double bedroom, as needs evolve.
There are a further two spacious double bedrooms, each providing a calm and comfortable retreat, large enough to accommodate double beds and additional furniture whilst creating cosy, yet uncluttered spaces.
The main bedroom also benefits from an ensuite bathroom. Additionally, there is a huge loft space providing superb storage.
The apartment's location in Sydenham is prime, very close to Lower Sydenham station (Charing Cross), Sydenham Overground providing direct connections to Canada Water for the Jubilee line, Shoreditch High Street and Clapham Junction.
The high street offers a vibrant yet relaxed neighbourly hub with a variety of amenities and access to several green open spaces, including Home, Crystal Palace, Mayow and Wells Parks.
