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
Available for the first time in 40 years, this family home located down the quiet and desirable Thomas Lane is well-presented throughout.
This well-proportioned home has been cherished for over four decades offering flexible living space perfect for family life, entertaining and a large plot equating 0.2 acre which presents exciting potential for the next owners.
Upon entry, you are immediately greeted by a welcoming entrance hallway leading you straight through to the bright dual aspect living room, which boasts an impressive 20ft.
Adjacent is the formal dining room, large enough to easily host an eight-seater table.
The kitchen has been replaced in recent years including multiple storage cupboards, practical workspace and integrated appliances, including induction hob.
This space is also perfect for casual dining. The utility room lies open plan to the kitchen and a convenient cloakroom concludes the downstairs.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with five bedrooms. The master bedroom benefits from wall-length wardrobes and a three piece renovated en-suite with underfloor heating.
There are two further generous double bedrooms, the larger of which benefits from being dual aspect.
The two remaining bedrooms are well-proportioned singles, one of which has a double integrated wardrobe and the other which the current owners are using as a study.
These bedrooms are served by a well-maintained family bathroom. Externally, there is a double detached garage offering excellent storage and workshop potential.
To the front, there is enough driveway space to park four vehicles and to the rear is an impressive sunny aspect wrap around garden. The side garden is a perfect BBQ area due to the patio and awning.
There is ample opportunity to extend the property, as many on the road have done already.
Thomas Lane is situated in the highly sought-after village of Finchampstead, offering a wonderful balance of semi-rural surroundings and everyday convenience.
The area is particularly popular with families due to its excellent schooling, including Finchampstead Church of England Primary School and Bohunt School, both within easy reach.
For outdoor enthusiasts, California Country Park offers beautiful woodland walks, a lake and family-friendly open spaces.
The property is also well positioned for access to the M4 and M3, making it ideal for commuters.
