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.

Offered for sale with no forward chain, this property is an ideal canvas for buyers eager to add their own style and flair, perhaps even increasing its value over time.
As you approach, a large porch offers a warm and practical entrance, leading into an impressively sized hallway that sets the tone for the generous proportions found throughout the home.
The heart of the bungalow is its expansive open-plan lounge and dining area, bathed in natural light from two large windows, one of which is a striking bay window framing a picturesque countryside view.
This inviting space is perfect for relaxing evenings or entertaining guests, with a gas fire adding a cosy touch to the lounge.
A door from the dining area leads seamlessly into the well-appointed kitchen, which boasts ample storage and a thoughtfully positioned sink beneath a window that captures more of the beautiful rural scenery.

The bungalow features two generously sized double bedrooms, each enhanced with fitted furniture to maximise storage and functionality, ensuring a clutter-free and restful environment.
The modern shower room is a further highlight, offering sleek high gloss cupboards that provide plenty of storage while maintaining a contemporary feel.
Practicality is matched by convenience, with a driveway and garage offering ample parking and additional storage solutions for all your needs.
