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.

New Instruction Viewing Event – Wednesday 19th August from 4.00pm. Come and see this beautifully refurbished home at its launch event.
Viewing strictly by appointment – please book your preferred time slot in advance.
The property Recently refurbished to an exceptional standard throughout, this beautifully presented three-bedroom home offers the rare combination of stylish modern living, generous space and a wonderfully long rear garden.
From the moment you step inside, the quality of the refurbishment is clear, with a fresh, contemporary finish that allows the new owner to simply move in and enjoy.
The ground floor has been thoughtfully arranged for modern family life, with a superb open-plan kitchen/dining room providing a bright and sociable heart to the home, complemented by a separate sitting room.
There is also useful utility space and a ground floor cloakroom. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms and a smart family bathroom, with the main bedroom benefiting from a bay window.
Outside, the rear garden stretches a considerable distance, offering plenty of room for children to play, families to relax and for those with green fingers to make their mark.
A garage adds valuable storage and parking. An ideal choice for a young family or first or second-time buyer seeking a home that combines high-quality finish with space to grow and enjoy.
The property also offers the reassurance of having been fully updated, meaning there is little left to do other than unpack, settle in and make it your own.
Agent Note - Garden Photography: The prolonged period of hot, dry weather, together with the current hosepipe restrictions, has made it impractical for the current owners to undertake significant work to refurbish the garden to the same standard as the house, with new planting and lawn improvements unlikely to establish successfully without sufficient rainfall.
As the garden is such an important feature of the property, the accompanying image has been digitally enhanced to illustrate its potential following some landscaping and maintenance.
The image is therefore for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the garden’s current condition.
The location The property is ideally placed for modern family life, with a great range of everyday amenities close at hand.
