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 delightful, four-bedroom terraced house close to the thriving town centre of historic Dorchester.
Princes Mews East is a small, quiet, private development, with attractively built traditional-style properties which face the rear of the grade two listed, stone-built ‘Benjamin Ferrey House’, which was converted in the late 90’s to provide luxury flats.

It is tastefully decorated throughout and has an EPC rating of ‘C’. Situation Dorchester, the county town of Dorset, is a vibrant historic market town that blends rich heritage with modern amenities.
