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.

This stylish three bedroom semi detached home nestles within the sought after Ampthill Chase development and provides a wealth of well proportioned, immaculate internal accommodation set over three floors.
Approach to the property is via a path leading to the front door with a combination of mature hedging and attractive fencing enclosing the perimeter.
Once inside the property itself you’re immediately greeted by the hallway which has a staircase rising to the first floor accommodation and, to the right hand side, the principal reception room, the living room.
This commands impressive dimensions, in this case 13’8ft by 11’9ft making for flexible furniture placement and has been decorated in neutral tones and hues with a window overlooking the front elevation.
Beyond here is the kitchen/diner which has been fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units with darker contrasting work surfaces over.
Several integrated appliances have been cleverly woven into the design, whilst ample space has been made available for a table and chairs, creating a real family/sociable area.
French doors open into the garden ensuring the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight.

To one side mirror fronted wardrobes have been installed and it also benefits from the convenience of its own en-suite which has been fitted with a stunning three piece suite including a double shower enclosure, low level wc and wash hand basin.
Sleek tiling adorns the splashback areas, and a Velux window contemporises the look further still.
