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
Set on a peaceful cul-de-sac enveloped by established trees, this four-bedroom detached house occupies a highly desirable setting in Balerno.
Part of an exclusive family-friendly development, it offers a relaxed village lifestyle with semi-rural charm, remaining within easy commuting distance of Edinburgh city centre.
The home itself further boasts large, light-filled rooms and a southwest-facing aspect.
It features two reception areas, as well as an open-plan breakfasting kitchen/dining room and a triple-aspect garden room.
The bedrooms all have excellent storage and they are served by two en-suites, a WC, and a family bathroom.
Externally, the property has private parking for the entire family and well-maintained gardens that are landscaped.
You are welcomed inside by a naturally-lit vestibule that flows though to a reception hall, providing an inviting first impression. There is ample space for coats and shoes, as well as a handy WC.
The living room is the heart of the home, bringing everyone together in comfort.
It has an expansive footprint for a wide array of furnishings and a southwest-facing bay window for a cascade of daily sun.
Attractive décor and carpeting create an elegant environment, which is further heightened by a handsome modern gas fireplace.
Next door, a formal dining room mirrors the aesthetic of the living area, offering an intimate setting for special occasions.
Extending from here and the kitchen is a large garden room, providing a flexible space to use as you see fit. It also has delightful garden views framed by oversized triple-aspect windows.
The bespoke kitchen/dining room share a spacious open-plan layout. It incorporates a generous range of timber-toned cabinets and black granite worktops too, ensuring superior storage and workspace.
Integrated Bosch appliances create a streamlined finish to the popular design. A fitted breakfast bar allows for quick meals, while the dining area is made for casual dinners with family.
A neighbouring utility room provides a quiet locale for laundry. The four double bedrooms extend off a broad landing with an airing cupboard.
Each room has light decoration and soft carpeting for a calm environment that fosters easy sleep. Furthermore, they all have built-in mirrored wardrobes for enhanced practicality.
Saving the best for the owners, the large principal bedroom has the advantage of dual-aspect windows, additional storage, and access to attic storage.
It also has a three-piece en-suite shower room, as does the second bedroom cementing the home’s executive appeal.
In addition to the WC and two en-suites, there is a three-piece family bathroom on the first floor for optimal convenience. It is comprised of a storage-set WC suite and a bath with a handheld shower.
To the front, the home features a monoblock driveway for multiple vehicles, in addition to an integral double garage with convenient access to the utility room.
It also has a mature front garden and a fully-enclosed rear garden that offers superb privacy being framed by established trees.
Ideal for families, this garden also boasts a generous footprint, which is landscaped with a high-standard artificial lawn (laid by Lawn Master), a patio, and decking (newly laid in 2025).
It has a scenic, natural ambience and comes with a bamboo (heated) gazebo and a Hot Spring Jetsetter hot tub too – perfect for unwinding and stargazing at night.
