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 rare opportunity to purchase this substantial five bedroom detached chalet-style property, occupying a tucked-away position within easy reach of Hadleigh High Street, with generous front and rear gardens, the former extending down towards a stream of the River Brett.
Offering approximately 1,949 sq ft of versatile accommodation, the property requires a programme of modernisation and updating, presenting an exciting opportunity for purchasers looking to create a family home to their own taste and specification.
The ground floor accommodation is accessed via an entrance hall, which leads through to the principal living room, with a staircase rising to the first floor.
A separate dining room provides additional reception space and is conveniently positioned alongside the kitchen.
A conservatory is located to the side of the property and is accessed externally from the front.
Also located on the ground floor are three bedrooms, providing flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or potential home office use, together with a shower room and several useful storage cupboards.
The first floor comprises two particularly generous double bedrooms, a dressing room, family bathroom and additional eaves storage.
Externally, the property is approached from Toppesfield Close via a track leading down to the entrance of Meersbrook, where you are greeted by a generous front garden, driveway providing off-road parking and a single garage.
The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn, leading through to an area of established trees and foliage which continues down towards a stream of the River Brett.
This provides a particularly attractive natural setting and is a wonderful feature of the property.
To the rear, the property enjoys a further generous and more established garden, predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and fenced boundaries providing a good degree of enclosure.
A garden shed offers additional outside storage, whilst the gardens as a whole provide considerable scope for landscaping and improvement.
Despite its tucked-away setting, Meersbrook is conveniently positioned within easy reach of Hadleigh High Street, which offers an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities.
The town also benefits from well-regarded schools, leisure facilities and access to the surrounding Suffolk countryside, with Ipswich and Colchester within easy reach.
