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 charming, bay-fronted, 1930’s family home offering extended and significantly improved accommodation, situated on a large plot to the east of the city centre.
The property is being sold with the benefit of no onward chain.
This superb 1930’s residence occupies a large plot on Church End, located a short distance to the east of the city centre and within easy reach of Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cherry Hinton High Street and excellent local schooling.
The property has been subject to a significant extension and improvement works in recent years, with the end result being a tremendous, characterful home of very generous proportions, which has been sympathetically adapted for family living.
Set well back from the road, the property is approached via a paved and gravel driveway with well-stocked side borders and a number of trees.
An entrance porch opens into the entrance hallway, which has stairs to the first floor and access to all of the reception rooms.
Also off the hall is the utility room, which has access to a WC and the integral garage, which has both an electric up-and-over door and a pedestrian door, and house the boiler.
The reception rooms include a bay-fronted living room/fourth bedroom to the front, a snug/family room, and a sitting room with bi-folding doors to the rear garden.

Installed in 2022, the stylish, Shaker-style kitchen has a wide range of fitted units with wooden worksurfaces and integrated appliances including a double oven, a five-zone induction hob with an integrated extractor hood over, a microwave, a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer.
On the first floor, there is a spacious landing with a window overlooking the rear garden.
There are three bedrooms, all of which are double in size, with the master bedroom being particularly large, including fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room with a three-piece suite.
The family bathroom was originally two rooms and includes a p-shaped bath with a mains shower over, a pedestal wash basin, a WC and a heated towel rail.
