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
Occupying arguably one of the best plots on this highly regarded Bellway development, this three bedroom detached house enjoys a large head of cul de sac corner site with good-sized gardens, extra parking and an open south-easterly facing aspect to the rear overlooking open fields.
The house has been extended with a conservatory overlooking the well-screened back garden.
An improved specification includes gas central heating with a replacement Ideal combination boiler (2021), uPVC double glazing and uPVC roofline.
The well-planned layout is ideal for family buyers and includes a hall, a living room which spans the full depth of the house, a separate dining room, a conservatory, a kitchen and a utility room, with access to the attached garage.
On the first floor, the landing leads to three bedrooms and a refitted shower room/wc with a large walk-in shower enclosure. The property has a Freehold title.
Viewing of this exceptional property and its excellent location is highly recommended. Brackenbeds is a small modern residential development on the outskirts of the village of Pelton.
Local village amenities are therefore easily accessible whilst the development lies only a few minutes' drive from Chester-le-Street town centre, where a more comprehensive range of shops, schools and facilities are available.
The town is an excellent commuter base with good road links to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland.
The town's railway station, also within walking distance, is on the main east coast line linking London and Edinburgh.
