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
Ref: JF0940 A beautifully presented and thoughtfully designed modern family home, offering spacious and versatile accommodation in the charming and highly sought-after village of Rode.
Situated within an exclusive development of just 20 homes and completed in 2020, the property was built to a high standard of specification, which can only be fully appreciated upon internal inspection.
Upon entering through the porch and front door, you access the entrance hallway, offering dedicated coats and boots storage.
This leads to two well-proportioned reception rooms, a useful downstairs cloakroom, and the kitchen/dining room.
The principal living room is a generous and inviting space, perfectly suited to both family life and entertaining.
Enjoying a dual aspect, the room is filled with natural light and features a cosy log-burning stove, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere during the cooler months.
Patio doors open directly onto the garden, providing a wonderful connection between the indoors and out and making the space equally appealing for enjoying long summer evenings.
The second reception room offers excellent flexibility and could be utilised as a formal dining room, home office, playroom, snug, or additional sitting room, depending on individual requirements.
At the heart of the home is the spacious contemporary kitchen/dining room.
Well-appointed with an excellent range of storage and generous worktop space, it provides a practical yet sociable setting for everyday family life, relaxed dining, and entertaining.
Further patio doors open onto the garden, enhancing the sense of space and providing the opportunity to create an even greater connection with the outdoors.
Subject to any necessary planning consents, the addition of an oak-framed conservatory could further enhance this versatile area.

Each bedroom provides a comfortable and peaceful space away from the main living areas.
