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 substantial, suntrap garden and a bright open-plan layout are two of the standout features of this well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home.
The lounge, dining area and kitchen flow from one to the next, creating a sociable ground floor that works equally well for family life and having friends over.
With driveway parking, a useful side utility area and plenty of outside space, this is a home likely to appeal to first-time buyers, couples and families alike.
Step through the front door into the hallway, which leads into the lounge. This is a welcoming room with plenty of natural light and an attractive feature fireplace that provides a focal point.
From here, the accommodation opens through to the dining area, so the two spaces feel connected while each retains its own purpose.
The dining area has room for a table and chairs, and glazed doors open directly onto the rear garden-ideal for making the most of sunny days.
The dining area flows into the modern kitchen, fitted with white units and wood-effect worktops.
A window looks out towards the garden, while the layout keeps the kitchen connected to the rest of the living space. Running along the side of the house is a long utility area.
It provides valuable extra storage, room for everyday household essentials and another route out to the garden.
Upstairs, the property has three bedrooms, giving buyers flexibility for family members, guests or a home office.
Two of the bedrooms benefit from extensive fitted wardrobes, helping to keep the rooms tidy without needing additional freestanding storage.
The family bathroom has a stylish finish, with marble-effect wall panels, a bath with shower over, a vanity unit and a heated towel rail. The rear garden deserves special attention.
It is substantial in size and a suntrap on brighter days, with the space to enjoy outdoor meals, put out garden furniture or give children room to play.
There is a lawn alongside a generous gravelled area, and a shed provides useful storage. To the front, the property has a driveway for off-road parking.
The home is located on Moorclose Road, within reach of local shops and schools, including St Mary’s Catholic Primary School and Beckstone Primary School.
Harrington Nature Reserve is nearby for a walk, while Harrington Harbour and the coastline are also within easy reach.
