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
Grapevine Estate Agents take pleasure in bringing to the market a beautifully renovated and extended four-bedroom chalet bungalow situated on the highly desirable Fosters Lane in Woodley.
Having undergone a comprehensive programme of improvement by the current owners, this impressive home now offers approximately 1,868 sq ft of accommodation, excluding the detached outbuilding, providing flexible and spacious living perfectly suited to modern family life.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the stunning 32ft open plan kitchen/living room.
Finished to a high standard, the contemporary kitchen features extensive cabinetry, quality worktops, a range-style cooker and a central island, creating a wonderful social space for both family living and entertaining.
The adjoining dining and living areas enjoy excellent natural light and direct access to the rear garden.
Complementing this space is a substantial 28ft living/family room with log burner, offering a cosy yet spacious retreat.
There is also a separate study which provides an ideal work-from-home space, together with a cloakroom and useful storage.
The flexible layout currently provides a ground floor bedroom, whilst the first floor offers three further generous bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom.
The principal bedroom benefits from an adjoining dressing room, creating a luxurious suite. All bedrooms are beautifully presented and finished to an excellent standard.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front is a large driveway providing ample off-road parking.
The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with a generous patio area, making it ideal for families and outdoor entertaining.
A standout feature is the detached 301 sq ft summer house/gym, offering enormous versatility as a home office, gym, studio or hobby room.
