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
***Vendor comments*** “I have been fortunate to call this wonderful house home for over 25 years and it has been a place filled with comfort, happiness and cherished memories.
From the moment I first stepped inside, I was drawn to the generous living space and the additional attic room, which has provided invaluable flexibility over the years.
One of the things I love most about the property is its sense of space and privacy.
The layout allows everyone to enjoy their own quiet corner of the house, while the bright and welcoming living areas bring people together.
The secluded rear garden has been a particular favourite, offering a peaceful retreat and a wonderful place to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy nature.
Over the years, I have carefully maintained and improved the home, including installing a new kitchen at that time, updating the bathroom and shower room and investing in significant roof improvements.
It has always been important to me that the house remains both comfortable and practical. The location has also been a huge part of its appeal.
Being within easy reach of South Croydon Station, excellent bus links, local parks, woodland walks and friendly neighbours has made everyday life incredibly convenient and enjoyable.
As I prepare for my next chapter, I leave behind a home that has given me so much joy.
My hope is that its next owners will love it just as much as I have and create many happy memories of their own here”.
