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
PARKERS PRESTIGE - A beautifully presented and extended home having been tastefully refurbished throughout.
Boasting a stunning kitchen family room and within a short walk to Pangbourne village centre and train station.
Fully renovated and modernised, this detached family home has been thoughtfully extended to provide versatile, light-filled accommodation over two floors.
Designed for practical family living and entertaining, it features elegant décor and high-quality fixtures throughout, with planning permission to extend the front, creating an additional reception room, a fourth bedroom, and an en suite.
The property welcomes you with a spacious reception hall, complete with useful storage and a cloakroom.
Accommodation includes a bright dual-aspect drawing room and an expansive kitchen/dining area, extended by the current owners to form the heart of the home.
The kitchen is fitted with contemporary high-gloss wall and base units, a central island with breakfast bar, complementary work surfaces, and modern integrated appliances.
It opens into a part-vaulted dining space, designed to accommodate a large table, with skylights and full-height glazing that lead to the rear terrace.
Adjacent rooms include a utility room with fitted units and garden access, a study with access to the integral garage, and a part-vaulted family room at the rear, filled with natural light from a large skylight.
On the first floor, a generous landing leads to a triple-aspect principal bedroom and two further double bedrooms, alongside a contemporary part-vaulted family bathroom with bath and separate shower.
Externally, the property is set behind a level lawn with mature shrub borders and a driveway providing private parking and access to the integral garage.
An additional gravelled parking area with a pedestrian gate leads to the enclosed, south-facing garden, predominantly lawn with well-stocked flower and shrub borders.
A paved terrace, accessible from the kitchen/dining area, provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining and dining.
