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

The River Lune and Lancaster Canal are just moments away, offering peaceful routes for walking and cycling, whether it’s part of your daily routine or a slower weekend plan.
With straightforward access to the Bay Gateway and M6, this is a spot that suits those wanting to stay connected while enjoying a neighbourhood that feels settled and lived in.
The Property There’s an immediate sense of space and character as you step inside, with high ceilings, original tiled flooring and period detailing setting the tone.
The front lounge is a room you’re naturally drawn to, centred around a working fireplace and framed by a bay window that fills the space with light.
It’s a room that feels just as suited to quiet evenings as it does to hosting friends.
Moving through, the second reception room offers a more relaxed setting, with access out to the side garden, giving it a natural link to the outside.
This flexibility is one of the home’s strengths, whether you need a snug, dining room or somewhere to unwind at the end of the day.
The kitchen is set to the rear and has a practical, well-considered layout, with shaker-style units, wooden worktops, a Belfast sink and range cooker.
There’s a real sense of it being the heart of the home, with space to cook, gather and move comfortably.
This flows into the sunroom, where natural light pours in and garden views become part of the space, making it an ideal spot for a morning coffee or informal dining.
A modern ground floor shower room adds to the practicality of the layout.
The cellar has been fully tanked and is currently used as a music room, offering a separate, adaptable space that could suit a range of uses.
Upstairs, the first floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom, while the main bedroom stands out for its size and natural light.
From the landing, a spiral staircase leads to the loft room, complete with Velux windows and useful eaves storage, giving you that extra bit of flexibility.
Outside, the garden is arranged across two levels, offering a balance between usable space and areas to enjoy.
The lower section provides access to a powered workshop, while the upper garden is more private, with a decked seating area, lawn and established planting creating a space that works for both relaxing and entertaining.
To the front, the property is set behind two gates, with a mature garden that gives a welcoming and well-kept first impression.
