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 Home with Character, Space and Beautiful Rural Views This attractive four-bedroom family home offers a wonderful combination of character, generous living space and an enviable rural outlook.
Set back from the road behind a fore garden and driveway providing ample parking, the property enjoys a lovely position with open countryside views to the rear and an east-facing garden.
Step inside and the welcoming entrance hall leads naturally into the heart of the home.
The front-facing living room is full of character, centred around an impressive brick arched fireplace with a log burner creating a cosy focal point for relaxing evenings.
A window overlooks the front garden, while a wide archway opens through into the dining room and adjoining reception area, creating a wonderfully sociable arrangement for family life and entertaining.
French doors open from the reception space onto the rear garden, allowing the beautiful outdoor setting to become part of the everyday living space.
The kitchen is a particular highlight, combining timeless style with excellent practicality.
White shaker-style wall and base units are paired with chunky timber worktops and a fabulous double Belfast sink, while integrated appliances include a dishwasher and fridge/freezer.
The real showstopper is the stunning red range cooker, which is included in the sale and adds a wonderful splash of colour and character to this inviting country-style kitchen.
The ground floor also benefits from a home office, providing the perfect dedicated space for working from home, together with a useful utility room and separate WC.
Upstairs, the accommodation is equally impressive, with four genuine double bedrooms arranged from the spacious landing.
Two of the bedrooms are positioned to the rear and take full advantage of the property's beautiful rural outlook, with views extending across the surrounding fields.
The principal bedroom is a wonderful retreat and benefits from its own ensuite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms offer excellent flexibility for family, guests or hobbies.
Completing the first-floor accommodation is the family bathroom, fitted with a modern white suite comprising panelled bath with shower over and glazed screen, pedestal wash hand basin and WC, together with a useful airing cupboard.
Outside, the property continues to impress with a long, west-facing rear garden that stretches away from the house and makes the most of its wonderful rural setting.
Mainly laid to lawn, it provides plenty of space for children to play, gardening or simply enjoying the peace and tranquillity of the surroundings.
Immediately adjoining the house is a paved patio seating area, creating the perfect spot for alfresco dining and summer entertaining.
At the far end of the garden sits a charming summer house, offering a peaceful retreat or flexible space for hobbies, relaxation or working from home.
Positioned to take advantage of the garden's westerly aspect, it provides a particularly special vantage point from which to sit back and enjoy the beautiful views across the surrounding countryside.
Anslow is a highly desirable village, with two popular pubs within easy reach.
There's a local primary school and the property is also within easy reach of the highly regarded John Taylor High School and John Taylor Free School.
For commuters, the A38 and A50 provide excellent road links, with Burton upon Trent, Barton-under-Needwood, Lichfield, Uttoxeter, Ashbourne and beyond all readily accessible.
