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
A beautifully presented and thoughtfully updated three-bedroom home, quietly positioned within an established residential setting overlooking a small green.
Offering well-balanced accommodation, a landscaped north-westerly facing garden, and versatile living space ideally suited to young families, professionals, and those seeking flexible work-from-home options; this is a home designed for comfortable modern living.
The property has been carefully improved in recent years, including the installation of a contemporary bathroom and a well-appointed shaker-style kitchen fitted by the previous owners.
The result is a calm, stylish, and highly functional home that is ready to move straight into.
The ground floor centres around a generous sitting room to the front, where a large picture window fills the space with natural light while providing attractive open views across the green.
To the rear, the refitted kitchen/dining room offers shaker-style cabinetry, ample worktop space, and room for family dining.
French doors open directly onto the raised deck, creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces, ideal for entertaining and everyday family life.
Additional practical features include useful floor-to-ceiling storage cupboards and understairs storage.
Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged around a central landing with further storage and access to a boarded loft.
The principal bedroom is a comfortable double with fitted wardrobes, while the second bedroom is another spacious double enjoying views across the green.
The third bedroom offers excellent flexibility and would work equally well as a nursery, child’s bedroom, dressing room, or dedicated home office.
The recently replaced bathroom has been finished to a high standard, featuring a freestanding bath, separate walk-in shower, contemporary vanity unit, and elegant modern fittings, creating a stylish and relaxing space.
Outside, the rear garden enjoys a desirable north-westerly aspect and has been landscaped for low-maintenance enjoyment.
A raised decked seating area leads onto a lawn with planted borders, while a useful brick-built outbuilding provides additional storage.
To the front, the open aspect, mature trees, and communal green space contribute to the property’s particularly peaceful and welcoming setting.
The property also benefits from an allocated off-road parking space, together with additional on-street parking nearby.
