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
Built on the site of an old farm in the centre of the village in 1996 by Beechcroft Developments who specialise in the creation of retirement properties.
The old barns remain with one converted to a spectacular indoor swimming pool for the residents to enjoy.
The property itself offers a deceptive amount of accommodation with a 15ft x 11ft sitting room, a conservatory overlooking the gardens and a dining room.
The kitchen is fitted with a good range of storage cupboards and integrated hob and oven. There is space for a freestanding washer/dryer.
In addition, there is a downstairs cloakroom accessed from the entrance hall. On the first floor there are two good sized bedrooms.
One with an en-suite shower room whilst the other is served by the family shower room.
Outside To the front of the property there are stocked flower borders with a pathway leading from the shared gravel drive and garage.
To the rear is a small patio garden, again well stocked, and it may be planted by the owner if desired and is southerly facing.
The management company maintains the communal gardens including a large level lawn with specimen trees and shrubs and numerous paths to the indoor swimming pool and BBQ/entertainment barn.
Cognatum Estates provides and is included in the stated service charges - maintains, repairs and insures all the buildings, arranges the window and gutter cleaning and refuse collection and tends to the gardens and grounds, including parking upkeep and service of the heated swimming pool thereby freeing owners and residents from these responsibilities.
There is a personal 24-hr alarm system in each property and resident estate managers are on hand to provide support and help when needed, making this an ideal 'Lock Up & Leave' property.
The property is leasehold with 999 years running from 1984 (957 years remaining). 2026 service charge - £10,014.
Situation The property is located in the pretty and historic village of Great Missenden.
It is just 352 yards from the station which offers a very convenient service to London (Marylebone, fast train - approximately 42 minutes).
A bus service is also available with destinations including High Wycombe, Amersham and Chesham.
Within a short distance from the property, there is a Post Office, a supermarket, several hairdressing salons, a chemist and a doctors' practice.
Additionally, there is a variety of independent specialist shops as well as cafes and a few pubs (inclucing The Nag's Head and The Cross Keys).
The village also offers international dining with a Thai restaurant, an Indian and the very successful pizza restaurant, Fanfan.
The local tennis club has 20-court (including two padel) and is hugely popular. There is also plenty of scope for walking through fields and woodland in the picturesque Chiltern countryside.
