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.

Description The apartment is situated on the first floor of this attractive modern scheme located towards the front of the main building.
The flat is well maintained with well designed accommodation and is available to the over 55's with alarm pull cords throughout.
