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.

Sellers Comments: "We had spent a long time looking for the right property before we found this home.
We were instantly drawn to its kerb appeal – the double-fronted design with its bay windows gives it a real storybook feel. What really stood out to us was the amount of space.
With over 1,400 sq ft, every room is generously proportioned, making it light, spacious and practical for family life. The landscaped, south-facing garden is a real sun trap.
Opening directly from the dining room through the French doors, it’s perfect for entertaining and easy to maintain.
The location has been ideal too, with excellent motorway links for commuting, local parks within easy reach, the handy Lidl around the corner and a genuinely friendly community.
Our neighbourhood WhatsApp group is a great example of that, with neighbours happily taking in parcels or watering each other’s gardens while people are away.
We’re very house-proud and have always tried to keep the house to a high standard.
We hope the next owners will enjoy it as a true turn-key home, just as much as we have." The Property A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the accommodation, leading to all principal ground floor rooms.
