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
Chiltern is a handsome double bay-fronted Victorian home, its name a nod to the era it was built in, when many houses across this part of Leicester were given individual names rather than numbers, often borrowing from English hills and counties to lend a touch of countryside charm to the new suburbs springing up for the city's growing professional classes.
That period character is still very much present today, blended with a layout that works well for modern living.
A welcoming entrance hall leads through to the front reception room, where a bay window and feature fireplace create a genuinely characterful sitting room.
A second reception room lies beyond, well suited to formal dining, before flowing into a well-fitted kitchen and on to a bright conservatory overlooking the garden.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys the benefit of the home's double bay frontage, a generous double with its own bay window.
Two further bedrooms are well proportioned, all three served by a family bathroom fitted with a bath and shower over, basin and WC.
Outside, the rear garden is enclosed and paved, offering a private, low-maintenance outdoor space that's ideal for entertaining or simply relaxing.
Offered with no upward chain, Chiltern presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home full of period charm in one of Leicester's most popular residential pockets.
