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-proportioned three-bedroom semi-detached home, thoughtfully arranged around an impressive open-plan dining kitchen and offering a level of space and finish that sets it apart.
The ground floor has been designed with both practicality and flow in mind.
A generous living room sits to the front with dual aspect bay windows, providing a comfortable and well-lit reception space, while to the rear the property opens into a superb dining kitchen.
Finished with sleek units, granite work surfaces and a central peninsula layout, this is a space that works equally well for everyday use or entertaining, with a natural connection through to the dining area and out to the garden.
A separate utility room, ground floor WC and internal access to the garage add further functionality. Upstairs, the layout continues to impress.
The principal bedroom benefits from dual aspect bay windows and its own en-suite, creating a bright and well-balanced main suite.
Bedroom two also includes fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, while bedroom three is a comfortable double served by a modern family bathroom.
In total, the first floor offers three bathrooms.
Externally, the property enjoys a private wrap around garden that benefits from a Southerly aspect, with both lawn and patio areas, offering a practical and sunny outdoor space.
A garage is accessed from the front driveway, providing secure parking or additional storage.
