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 is a suprisingly spacious one bedroom, ground floor flat.
As well as a separate bedroom and kitchen, It also benefits from a storage/utility room housing a washing machine and dryer with shelves for storage.
The flat is within a 15 minute walk from the town centre and university and has lots of conveniences on the doorstep, a Morrisons Local, 2 minutes walk away and an Asda, Aldi and leisure centre all within walking distance.
In the next street, there is a nature reserve and through an arboretum, a large public meadow.
The property is chain free and is a leasehold property with the land owned by Stoke on Trent City Council. As such, service charges are low and the communal gardens well maintained.
There are 105 years left on the lease, service charges are £112 per year and ground rent is £10 per year and it's council tax band A. This property is a little gem that could do with some TLC.
It may appeal to first time buyers, someone looking to downsize with mobility issues or to investors as there is a buoyant rental and student market.
