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
An individual bespoke three bedroom bungalow situated on a generous plot in the village of Crossways, with garage and driveway parking.
The Property - Built in 1983 for the current owners, this individually designed and bespoke bungalow offers spacious reception areas and a well-planned, practical layout throughout.
The loft space was originally designed with future conversion in mind, presenting excellent potential to further extend the accommodation with additional loft rooms, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The property provides versatile living accommodation and occupies a generous corner plot, ideally situated within easy walking distance of village amenities and scenic countryside walks.
The dual-aspect 22ft sitting room features a central fireplace and sliding doors opening into a large dining conservatory, complete with radiator and direct access to the garden.
Enjoying views over the surrounding gardens from three sides, this is a delightful space in which to relax and entertain throughout the year.

A door leads to a useful utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, access to the garden, and a convenient WC.
The third bedroom benefits from an additional door to the kitchen, offering flexibility for use as a formal dining room if desired. There are also two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Outside - The driveway provides off street parking for roughly 4 cars and leads to an integral garage with an electrically operated roller door, power, light, gas central heating boiler and a door in to the utility room.
