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
Set in the heart of Pontcanna, this detached property offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience and city living.
Tucked away from the road, the property enjoys a quiet and secure setting, while also benefiting from private off-road parking alongside the house, with the potential to install an electric vehicle charging point.
The ground floor is centred around a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living space.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, integrated cooking appliances and a breakfast bar, while the adjoining dining area has ample room for a full-size table.
Beyond, the lounge provides a comfortable seating area with a feature fireplace and French doors opening onto the enclosed rear courtyard.
Completing the ground floor is an entrance hall with stairs to the first floor and a useful WC. Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms.
The main bedroom is particularly spacious and has direct access into the main bathroom.
The bathroom can also be accessed independently from the landing, making it practical for both bedrooms and guests. It is fitted with a bath, separate shower enclosure, WC and wash basin.
Externally, the property has an enclosed rear courtyard/decked garden, accessed directly from the living space, providing a low-maintenance area for outdoor seating.
