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
Situated within a quiet cul-de-sac location in the popular Jersey Farm area of St Albans, is this well-presented and thoughtfully updated one-bedroom apartment, which is offered for sale with no onward chain and benefits from an extended lease of approximately 146 years remaining.
The property offers a bright and airy feel throughout, with accommodation comprising a spacious open-plan sitting and dining area, which flows through to a refitted modern kitchen, creating a comfortable and practical living space.
The double bedroom features built-in wardrobes and is accessed via the landing, which also provides access to a separate bathroom.
Externally, the apartment enjoys a secluded position within the development, with communal gardens to the front and the benefit of allocated parking to the rear.
This property would make an ideal first-time purchase, investment opportunity, or downsizing option, and early viewing is highly recommended.
