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 acquire a detached residence with 2 separate garages, offering scope to develop, subject to the necessary consents.
The house is no chain & enjoys a cul-de-sac position in CB1. This detached house has been well maintained by our owner for over 22 years.
Various benefits include a private garden, a refitted kitchen & 2 garages equipped with Hormann electric roller doors.
The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch with door to an inner hall providing space for coats, footwear & stairs leading to the first-floor.
The living room is finished with attractive Karndean flooring which continues through to a bright open-plan kitchen/dining room with bi-folding door to the private rear garden.
The kitchen has a breakfast bar peninsula & is fitted with a modern range of base and eye-level units; integrated appliances include a microwave, oven & electric hob with extractor over.
A door from the kitchen leads to the first of the adjoining garages which has a utility area with additional units, door to the rear garden & access to a refitted cloakroom W.C.
The 2nd garage is particularly sizeable, has been fully insulated & has double glazed doors to the rear garden.
The garage has soil pipes and foundations in place to convert/extend to a self-contained annexe or additional dwelling, subject to planning.
Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, 2 of which are comfortable doubles & bedroom 3 serving as a study. The bathroom includes a separate bath & shower.
At the front of the property there is a well-maintained open-plan lawned garden with a boundary wall & ample driveway parking. Both garages have electric roller doors.
The rear garden is due south-east, has a patio, greenhouse, 2 storage sheds & an ornate pond.
Cherry Hinton is a thriving, sought-after south city suburb, incredibly well served by High Street with a variety of shops, pubs & eateries, plus leisure & health facilities.
There is a major Tesco supermarket nearby & schooling for all ages.
