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 handsome detached house in a convenient location near Woodbridge.
Valley View, with its handsome facade, sits nicely within its mature and sheltered garden plot in a convenient and accessible location just 2½ miles to the west of Woodbridge, and within walking distance of two local pubs and a variety of shops and facilities at Martlesham Heath.
Dating from 1938 it is understood that the house was designed and built by a local Woodbridge architect.
Within, the light and well laid out accommodation extends to some 2,273 sq ft and includes a sheltered front door opening into a wide central reception hall, with wooden flooring, set off which is an elegant sitting room with glazed door to the garden terrace, a well-proportioned dining room and a generous sized study with built-in units and bookshelves.
The impressive double aspect open plan kitchen/dining/living room features a fitted kitchen with cooking range, kitchen table area and garden room with twin sets of French doors opening onto the aforementioned terrace.
The ground floor is completed with a utility and cloak room as well as access to an integral garage, which offers the potential to be converted to another living room.
On the first floor there are a total of four bedrooms (three double and a single) and two bath/shower rooms, one of which is en suite.
The property benefits from a mains gas-fired central heating system and has a security system.
OUTSIDE A sweeping circular shingled drive, with a wide central lawn, links to the front of the house and provides access to a further detached single garage, with a workshop area at the end.
Pathways lead around the house to a sheltered and secluded rear garden, with a treed backdrop, well stocked shrub borders and a levelled lawn.
A west facing garden terrace is ideal for alfresco dining and accessible from the kitchen and sitting room.
There is a nicely tucked away area of kitchen garden with raised beds and a greenhouse, together with a service courtyard.
