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 well presented four bedroom semi-detached period home, complete with a self-contained one-bedroom garden apartment, off road parking and a garage used for storage.
Ideally situated within walking distance of the town centre, local parks and schools, The Lido and Cheltenham General Hospital.
The well-proportioned accommodation on the ground floor comprises in brief an inviting entrance hallway, a spacious living room, a separate dining room featuring an open fireplace and a generous kitchen/breakfast room with access to both the garage and attractive rear garden.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms, including built-in wardrobes to the second bedroom, together with a family bathroom complete with a separate shower, plus a WC.
The second floor provides a fourth bedroom with views and a large attic space offering excellent storage and potential for further use, subject to the necessary consents.
The self-contained garden apartment, requiring some updating, benefits from its own private entrance and comprises a large living room, double bedroom, kitchen and shower room making it ideal for guest accommodation or potential rental income.
Further benefits of this fine property include gas fired central heating, a wealth of character features, an attractive landscaped rear garden and delightful views overlooking St Luke's Church.
In addition, the original staircase connecting the main house and apartment remains in place, although currently closed off to create a cupboard on the ground floor.
