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
This semi-detached house in Inverness has a separate lounge and dining room downstairs, two bedrooms upstairs and a long rear garden that gives a couple, a first time buyer or a small family plenty of space all in a location close to the city centre.
At the front, a small lawn sits behind a low timber fence, with a gravel driveway running alongside the house giving you useful off street parking.
The front door is sheltered beneath a tiled canopy, while a gate further along leads round towards the rear garden.
Open the front door and you’ll find the staircase directly ahead, with the lounge accessed through a door to the side. This is a good sized room with plenty of personality.
Light grey wood effect flooring runs underfoot, while the walls mix patterned wallpaper with a striking panelled effect made up of dark framing and textured sections.
A white fireplace with a chrome and black inset fire gives the lounge another strong focal point. The front window has a radiator directly beneath to keep the room warm.
There’s plenty of room for sofas, chairs and additional furniture. Two separate doors lead off from here, one taking you into the dining room and the other directly into the kitchen.
The dining room gives you a dedicated space to enjoy meals. Green painted walls add a little colour, while a rear facing window looks out to the garden with a radiator fitted below.
There’s room for a dining table and chairs, making this a useful room for everyday meals as well as having friends or family round.
The kitchen has a strong contemporary look, with glossy dark grey cabinets and chrome handles which complement the darker finish nicely.
Crisp white worktops contrast with the grey metro style tiles which run along as splashbacks.
A stainless steel sink and drainer is directly beneath the wide rear window, while a built-in oven and hob ensure cooking needs are handily taken care of.
Some walls have coffee themed wallpaper which adds a little more character, while the white external door takes you straight outside.
Upstairs, bedroom one is found at the front of the home and is the larger of the two rooms.
The decor is very distinctive, with a combination of deep blue coloured patterned wallpaper and a softer blue and grey floral design on the adjoining walls.
A grey carpet runs underfoot, while spotlights and a ceiling fan with integrated lights sit overhead.
Two separate built-in cupboards, covered by timber louvred doors, give you a good amount of storage without taking up floor space.
The second bedroom continues the same mixture of patterned wallpapered finishes. A grey carpet runs across the floor and the rear facing window has a white radiator directly below.
A built-in wardrobe with timber louvred doors provides useful storage along one side of the room. The bathroom is positioned at the top of the stairs and has a bold black and white finish.
A white bath runs along one side with a shower fitted above and a curved screen at one end.
Glossy black wall panels surround the bath area and continue around the frosted window, creating a strong contrast against the white tiles elsewhere.
Across the room, a dark basin is set into a black worktop above curved white vanity cupboards, giving you useful storage beneath.
Mirrored cabinets are mounted above, while the white toilet completes the room. Outside, the rear garden is a real strength of the home.
A large lawn takes up most of the space with room for children to play or pets to roam, all enclosed by timber fencing.
A shed is already in place giving you the perfect spot to store gardening equipment, tools or other items.
To the side of the house there’s also a lean-to store, adding another useful place for bikes and household items.
For anyone looking for a two bedroom home in a good Inverness location, then this is one well worth considering.
