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 much-loved family home that has been thoughtfully extended and lovingly maintained, offering well-proportioned accommodation with plenty of space for modern living.
Offered for sale with no upward chain, this delightful semi-detached home also offers potential for further extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
From the moment you arrive, the paved driveway provides ample off-road parking, while the handy porch leads into the welcoming hallway.
The bright living room features a character fireplace and flows into a versatile family area, with sliding doors opening into the conservatory – a lovely space to relax and enjoy views of the garden.
The extended kitchen is a real highlight, incorporating a formal dining area which creates an excellent space for family meals and entertaining.
The kitchen is fitted with wooden wall and base units, contrasting work surfaces, sink and drainer, integrated oven, hob and extractor, together with space for additional appliances.
The generous dining area adds further flexibility and provides a natural space for gathering with family and friends.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, including two comfortable double bedrooms and a good-sized single, alongside a refitted shower room with a walk-in shower cubicle, pedestal wash hand basin and low-level WC.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden offers a lawn, patio area, decorative gravel and a garden shed, with convenient side access from the driveway.
The combination of lawn and patio provides plenty of opportunity for outdoor seating, entertaining or simply enjoying the garden during the warmer months.
The sellers have made us aware that the boiler was replaced approximately two years ago.
Having been carefully maintained and thoughtfully extended, this is a home that offers a comfortable layout today while also providing scope for the future.
An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation and potential on offer.
