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 attractive and characterful one-bedroom, second-floor apartment, ideally situated in the heart of Faringdon, just a stone’s throw from the Market Place and a wide range of local amenities.
The property is offered to the market chain free and offers well-proportioned accommodation comprising a kitchen, sitting/dining room with a charming bay window and two built-in storage cupboards, a versatile home office, bathroom, and a spacious master bedroom featuring a further bay window.
Externally, the property benefits from off-street parking for one car, located to the rear of the building.
The property is leasehold with a share of the freehold, with a 999-year lease commencing in 1987, leaving approximately 964 years remaining. There is no ground rent or management company fee.
However, the flat owners have agreed to contribute £100 per month towards ongoing building maintenance, buildings insurance, electricity for communal areas, and other associated costs.
Further benefits include mains gas central heating and secondary glazing throughout.
This charming apartment offers a fantastic opportunity for a first-time buyer, investor or those looking for a centrally located home, and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Location The historic market town of Faringdon, which dates back to the 12th Century, is located almost equidistant of Swindon and Oxford on the A420 which leads to the A34, M40 and M4.
Mainline railway services to London run from Swindon, Oxford City, Oxford Parkway and Didcot Parkway.
The town is served by the Stagecoach S6 bus which runs a regular 1⁄2 hourly service through much of the day to Swindon and Oxford and the villages en-route.
The town itself has a thriving community and amenities such as the leisure centre, library, independent traders, doctors’ surgery, two primary schools, and a secondary school.
In 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England.
A recent retail development includes a Waitrose and an Aldi supermarket, with further retail planned, in addition to the existing Tesco store.
