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
Details Quietly positioned within a small and highly desirable development, this beautifully presented two-bedroom semi-detached villa occupies a generous garden plot in a peaceful yet convenient pocket of Rutherglen.
Thoughtfully upgraded by the current owner, the property is presented in excellent walk-in condition, with a particularly appealing semi-open-plan layout to the ground floor that creates a bright and sociable environment ideally suited to modern living.
The specification includes a professionally refitted kitchen and a striking shower room, both installed approximately five years ago, complemented by fresh décor and quality floor coverings throughout.
Double glazing and gas-fired central heating, provided by a Worcester Bosch combination boiler, ensure warmth and comfort throughout the year.
A private entrance vestibule leads into the impressive double aspect lounge.
The contemporary kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with a good range of base and wall-mounted units, together with an integrated ceramic hob, oven and washing machine, while space is provided for a freestanding fridge freezer.
French doors open directly from the dining area into the generous enclosed rear garden, allowing natural light to flow through the space and creating a pleasant connection with the outdoors.
The upper landing provides access to both bedrooms and incorporates a highly convenient storage cupboard, together with a floored attic providing valuable additional storage space.
Both bedrooms are generous doubles, with fitted wardrobes offering excellent hanging and storage provision.
A beautifully appointed shower room, finished with contemporary fittings, completes the accommodation.
Externally, the property benefits from a private driveway to the front, providing valuable off-street parking for up to three cars.
The fully enclosed rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for ease of maintenance, with a gravelled finish incorporating a central circular flagstone patio, providing an ideal space for outdoor seating, dining or container planting.
High timber fencing enhances the sense of privacy, while a useful garden shed provides additional storage.
With ample room for garden furniture and outdoor entertaining, the garden offers a practical and attractive extension of the living space without the maintenance associated with a traditional lawn.
Cityford Drive is ideally positioned within a popular residential area within Rutherglen and sits on hand for a host of local amenities including schools at both primary and secondary levels, shops, and public transport services.
Nearby Rutherglen Main Street and Stonelaw Road provide a more extensive range of amenities including supermarkets, bars, restaurants, and train stations for easy commuting to Glasgow City Centre and the surrounding areas.
In addition to this, there are excellent road links close by giving easy access to the Central Belt motorway network system. The Energy Performance rating on this property is Band C
