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 immaculate, character detached three bedroom house has been well maintained by the current owner and offers beautiful and comfortable family living accommodation.
Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway that leads to all the ground-floor principal rooms, including the generous and light-filled 20-foot living room with French doors that open onto the rear garden, a separate dining room, a well-fitted kitchen/breakfast room that leads onto a utility area, a downstairs shower room, and a further family/play reception room.
On the first floor, there is a very spacious landing leading to three good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The principal bedroom has built-in wardrobes, dual-aspect views, and a useful vanity unit with a sink and mirror.
Bedroom two has fitted wardrobes, too, and the third 10ft bedroom has a feature corner window. Outside, the property sits on a large plot with off-street parking to the front for 2/3 cars.
To the rear, there is a very generous garden arranged with a large patio seating area, otherwise laid to lawn, with fenced boundaries and side access to the front of the property.
This charming property is situated near the historic village of Kings Langley, which offers a wide selection of high-street shopping, public houses, services, leisure amenities and primary and secondary schooling.
Hemel Hempstead, Watford and St. Albans offer more extensive shopping, leisure and recreational facilities. The M25 and M1 give access to major regional centres and the national motorway network.
Kings Langley and Apsley stations offer regular services to central London in less than half an hour.
The area offers a wide range of state primary and secondary schooling, including Two Waters Primary School (Outstanding by Ofsted) and a good selection of independent schools, including Abbot’s Hill, Westbrook Hay, Lockers Park, York House and Stanborough Secondary.
