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
On the second floor of Floral Place, this exceptional two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment extends to over 1,080 sq ft of beautifully crafted living space - with a further 477 sqft of additional eaves and storage space - combining the character of the original Victorian industrial factory building with a carefully considered contemporary finish.
Defined by impressive volume, exposed timber beams and vaulted ceilings, it is one of the most distinctive homes within this boutique conversion, which also features dedicated, gated off street parking.
Inside Forming part of a collection of just eight individually designed residences, the apartment centres around a remarkable open-plan reception, dining and kitchen space extending to over 22ft.
A dramatic vaulted ceiling, oversized arched factory-style window and exposed structural timbers create a striking sense of scale, while Xylo Fitzrovia chevron flooring and underfloor gas heating run throughout.
The bespoke kitchen is arranged around a substantial island with breakfast seating, creating a natural focal point for everyday living and entertaining.
Integrated Neff appliances, stone worktops and a combination of warm timber and contemporary cabinetry deliver a sophisticated yet practical workspace.
Both bedrooms are generous doubles and benefit from extensive fitted storage, with the principal bedroom measuring over 16ft in length with floor to ceiling bespoke joinery.
The second bedroom is equally well-proportioned and enjoys a tranquil setting beneath the building's characterful roofline.
Skylights and original exposed beams feature throughout the apartment, enhancing the sense of individuality while drawing natural light into every room.
Two beautifully appointed bathrooms serve the apartment.
The principal bathroom features a freestanding bath positioned beneath roof lights, alongside a separate walk-in shower, while the second shower room mirrors the same refined palette and quality of finish found throughout the development.
Beyond the principal accommodation, substantial eaves storage extends across the apartment, providing a significant amount of additional usable space.
As with the wider Floral Place development, the apartment has been comprehensively refurbished with full insulation, a new roof and new windows, delivering excellent thermal efficiency and comfort.
All internal and external doors are fire-rated, while the combination of modern construction standards and premium materials creates a home that feels both characterful and reassuringly robust.
