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
Welcome to this charming two-bedroom home in Purbrook, brought to the market by Marco Harris.
A rare opportunity to secure a two-bedroom home within a quiet cul-de-sac, complete with driveway parking directly in front, a private rear garden, character features and a recently refitted bathroom.
One of the biggest advantages of this particular property is its three-bedroom configuration.
Similar homes within the area are often arranged as two bedrooms, whereas the accommodation here has been thoughtfully adapted to provide a genuine third bedroom, creating additional flexibility for families, home workers or those simply wanting an extra guest room.
Downstairs, there is a comfortable lounge, separate dining area and fitted kitchen. Upstairs, the principal bedroom offers exposed beams which add warmth and personality.
It is complemented by two further bedrooms and the newly fitted bathroom, making the property particularly well suited to first-time buyers, young families or those needing a home office.
With some areas offering scope for cosmetic updating, the property presents an exciting chance to add your own style while benefiting from a practical three-bedroom layout and plenty of space to park your cars with driveway parking conveniently positioned directly in front of the home as well as an additional allocated parking space.
Positioned within a peaceful cul-de-sac, the property offers a surprisingly versatile layout, combining character, practical living space and the opportunity for its next owner to personalise the home over time.
The Interior Stepping inside, the home immediately has a warm and individual feel, with character features including exposed ceiling beams adding personality to the living accommodation.
The main lounge measures approximately 3.91m x 3.52m (12'10" x 11'7"), providing a comfortable space for sofas and everyday relaxation.
This leads through towards the separate dining area, measuring approximately 2.35m x 2.71m (7'9" x 8'11"), giving enough room for a dining table and making it a useful additional reception space.
The kitchen, measuring approximately 2.37m x 2.69m (7'9" x 8'10"), is positioned towards the rear of the home and includes a range of fitted units and work surfaces, with access towards the garden.
While some areas of the property offer scope for cosmetic updating, the home has already benefited from improvements, most notably the recently refitted first-floor bathroom, providing a smart and modern finish.
The First Floor Upstairs, the layout is particularly versatile.
The principal bedroom measures approximately 3.70m x 3.02m (12'2" x 9'11") and provides a well-proportioned main bedroom with ample space for bedroom furniture.
Bedroom Two, measuring approximately 2.95m x 2.58m (9'8" x 8'6"), makes a comfortable second bedroom.
The addition of Bedroom Three, measuring approximately 2.80m x 2.26m (9'2" x 7'5"), is a real benefit and could work equally well as a child’s bedroom, nursery, guest room or dedicated home office.
Completing the first floor is the recently refitted bathroom, measuring approximately 1.81m x 1.67m (5'11" x 5'6").
Outside Externally, the property benefits from a private rear garden, offering useful outdoor space for relaxing, entertaining or family use.
To the front, another major selling point is the driveway parking positioned directly in front of the property, providing convenient off-road parking immediately outside the home.
The Opportunity This is a home that offers a great balance between what has already been improved and what could still be personalised.
Rather than paying a premium for somebody else’s taste, the next owner has the opportunity to update selected areas in their own style, while already benefiting from three bedrooms, driveway parking, a modern bathroom and a practical ground-floor layout.
For first-time buyers, young families or anyone looking for a flexible three-bedroom home in Purbrook, this property deserves serious consideration.
An internal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the layout, character and potential on offer.
