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
A truly immaculate and beautifully presented three-bedroom period home, occupying a highly sought-after position just minutes from Cheltenham town centre and the open green spaces of Pittville Park.
Recently updated to an impressive standard, the property combines attractive period character with stylish contemporary finishes and offers superb accommodation arranged over three floors.
The ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall, leading through to a wonderful living room.
This is a particularly attractive reception space, with large sash-style windows bringing in plenty of natural light and a handsome period fireplace providing an appealing focal point.
Built-in shelving and cabinetry complement the room, while the tasteful décor enhances the home's character.
To the rear is the superb recently updated kitchen/diner, finished with an excellent range of contemporary cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and integrated appliances.
The generous dining area provides plenty of space for a table and features another character fireplace, while French doors open directly onto the rear garden.
The result is a bright, sociable room that works exceptionally well for both everyday family life and entertaining.
The lower ground floor provides a surprisingly spacious third bedroom, giving the house an excellent degree of versatility.
Alongside is a separate utility room, making this level ideal as guest accommodation, a teenager's bedroom or potentially a substantial home office for those working remotely.
Upstairs are two further bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with excellent proportions, fitted wardrobes, dual-aspect windows and an attractive period fireplace.
The second bedroom is also a well-presented room, while the recently updated family bathroom has been finished in a stylish contemporary scheme, with a bath, separate shower enclosure, vanity unit and attractive tiling.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden provides a lovely private space in which to relax and entertain.
French doors from the kitchen/diner lead onto a decked seating area, beyond which is a lawned garden enclosed by character brick walls and established planting.
The position is a major part of the appeal. Cheltenham town centre is just minutes away, putting an outstanding selection of shops, restaurants, cafés, bars and cultural attractions within easy reach.
Pittville Park is also close by, offering extensive green space, leisure facilities and pleasant walks, while the popular Brewery Quarter provides further dining, entertainment and leisure options.
The area is well placed for a range of highly regarded schools, including primary, secondary, grammar and independent options across Cheltenham.
For commuters, Cheltenham Spa railway station provides connections towards Birmingham, Bristol and London, while the A40 and M5 give convenient road access to Gloucester, Worcester, Bristol and the wider motorway network.
Beautifully presented throughout and ready to move straight into, this is a superb period home where the quality of the recent improvements sits comfortably alongside its original character.
Its combination of three spacious bedrooms, stylish kitchen and bathroom, private garden and exceptional proximity to both the town centre and Pittville Park makes it an especially appealing Cheltenham home.
