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
Offered for sale with no onward chain involved, this is a superb opportunity to acquire a generously sized semi-detached house within the highly regarded Buttsbury and Mayflower school catchment in Billericay.
Originally designed as a four-bedroom home, the property has been thoughtfully reconfigured into three bedrooms, resulting in two exceptionally generous rooms plus a good-sized third bedroom, all served by a modern white bathroom complete with a drench-head shower.
Over the years the property has seen a number of improvements, and more recently it has been redecorated throughout with new carpets fitted, giving it a fresh, move-in-ready feel.
In addition to a ground floor WC and a nicely proportioned living room, the house features a stylish full-width kitchen diner with folding doors that open directly onto the garden, a real appeal for families and entertainers alike.
Further points of note include smooth ceilings with inset spotlights creating a clean, modern finish, varnished internal doors throughout, and a single garage accessed directly from the rear garden.
ACCOMODATION AS FOLLOWS... ENTRANCE PORCH With a wood-effect laminate floor, the entrance porch is the perfect spot for wet feet and muddy boots.
Varnished panel doors lead to both the lounge and the downstairs cloakroom.
GROUND FLOOR WC The wood-style flooring extends into this small but useful downstairs WC, which features a white suite with a push-button flush WC, a corner wash basin with mixer tap, a chrome heated towel rail, and a front-facing window providing natural light and ventilation.
LIVING ROOM 5.14m x 5.10m (16'10 x 16'8) Wide front-facing windows flood this newly carpeted and freshly painted lounge with a good level of natural light.
The smooth plastered ceiling with inset spotlights adds a contemporary touch, while stairs rise to the first floor and a varnished door connects through to the kitchen.
KITCHEN DINER 5.16m x 3.76m (16'11 x 12'3) In previous years the separate kitchen and dining room were combined to create this fantastic full-width kitchen diner, which benefits from a side door, a rear window, and folding doors that open onto the garden.
The stylishly tiled kitchen offers a generous range of white gloss-fronted units and worktops, incorporating an enamel one-and-a-half sink unit and integrated dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, and freezer.
There are also glazed display cabinets, a built-in wine rack, a cupboard housing the Baxi boiler, and low-level plinths with feature LED lighting, a thoughtful finishing touch.
LANDING The U-shaped landing with turned balustrades gives access to bedrooms one and three to the front of the house, and bedroom two and the bathroom to the rear and side.
There is also a built-in cupboard housing the hot water tank, and a loft hatch with a drop-down ladder.
BEDROOM ONE 4.13m x 3.03m (13'6 x 9'11) Another wide front-facing window brings excellent natural light into this newly carpeted bedroom, which also benefits from two built-in double wardrobes.
BEDROOM TWO 5.15m x 2.93m (16'10 x 9'7) What was originally two separate bedrooms has been opened up to create this impressive full-width rear bedroom, featuring two rear windows and a smooth ceiling with inset spotlights.
It's worth noting that, as a result of the conversion, this room is actually larger than bedroom one and may well be the preferred choice as the main bedroom, something to consider when viewing.
BEDROOM THREE 2.26m x 2.03m (7'5 x 6'7) In addition to a large built-in cupboard with hanging rail, this bedroom has ample space for a single bed or, of course, a home office setup for those working from home.
BATHROOM A side window and smooth ceiling with inset spotlights combine nicely with stylishly tiled walls and floor, as well as a three-piece white suite.
The suite comprises a shower bath with screen, wall-mounted taps and a separate shower attachment with a drench head, a push-button WC, and a wash basin with vanity unit and mixer taps.
A heated towel rail completes the room. OUTSIDE FRONT To the front of the property is a lawned area with a path leading up to the front door.
REAR GARDEN The rear garden is pleasingly unoverlooked and commences with a paved patio, with the remainder laid to artificial lawn with sleeper-edged flower borders.
A door to the rear of the garden provides access to the single garage and a side gate leads out to the front of the house.
SINGLE GARAGE 4.78m x 2.42m (15'8 x 7'11) Approached via the rear service road, the garage sits within a block of garaging shared with neighbouring properties.
It benefits from an up-and-over door and has power connected.
It's worth mentioning that, as is common with these properties, many residents find the garage or rear gate to be a convenient and frequently used entrance point.
