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 3 bedroom, detached bungalow, occupying an elevated position within a cul-de-sac in the ever-popular village of Lapford.
Offered to the market with no onward chain, this bright and spacious home presents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to modernise and create a home to their own taste.
Enjoying a delightful south-facing aspect to the front, the property is well positioned to take full advantage of its elevated setting, with far-reaching views across the village and hillside beyond.
The accommodation begins with an entrance hall, complete with a generous storage cupboard, before opening into a spacious sitting and dining room.
A large front-facing picture window floods the room with natural light while perfectly framing the impressive outlook. An inner hallway provides access to the remaining accommodation.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units and with a side aspect window, leading through to a useful utility room with direct access to the rear garden.
There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, along with a shower wet room. An accessible loft with shelving.
Outside, the south-facing front garden is laid mainly to lawn with established shrubs and planting, creating an attractive approach to the property.
A driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a single garage with an electric roller door.
The enclosed rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for ease of maintenance, featuring paved seating areas, well-stocked flower beds, mature shrubs and a greenhouse.
