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
*** Guide Price £950,0000 - £1,000,000 *** Set within the sought-after village of Rodmell, this spacious four-bedroom detached home offers generous family accommodation, excellent parking and a particularly large rear garden.
The property sits back behind a wide driveway with space for multiple vehicles, alongside a front garden and detached double garage.
Inside, the welcoming hallway leads to an impressive 26’8 living and dining room with direct access onto the garden.
The recently updated kitchen features a stylish range of units, integrated appliances and a central island, complemented by a separate utility room.
There is also a versatile second reception room and a useful ground-floor shower room.
Upstairs are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, several with built-in storage, together with a family bathroom.
The large rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature trees, hedging and fencing, with the overall plot extending to approximately one-third of an acre.
The double garage has been upgraded with a pitched roof, loft storage and an electric roller door, while the replacement oil tank has been installed to comply with current regulations.
