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
This spacious and light second floor apartment offers fantastic views over open countryside and is one of ten apartments converted from an exclusive country house dating back to the 1920's.
Bylands House is conveniently situated on the northern edge of Redbourn village, adjacent to open countryside, yet within walking distance of amenities.
A grand main entrance leads through to a communal hallway with imposing galleried staircase leading up to the apartment on the top floor.
The accommodation includes an entrance hall, large lounge with feature fireplace and a light and spacious dual aspect kitchen/diner, also with feature fireplace, and fitted with an attractive range of Oak units with integrated oven/hob and fridge and space for a washing machine and freezer.
There are three good size bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room and a further modern bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
All rooms have far reaching countryside views. Outside a gated driveway leads to the residents allocated parking.
The large communal gardens are a particular delight - a fabulous space to relax in the summer months. Nb. A service charge of £250 pcm covers the maintenance costs of the building and grounds.
Each flat owns a share of the freehold and there is a long lease with 989 years remaining.
The apartment is positioned on the northern fringe of Redbourn, a picturesque village in Hertfordshire and conveniently located for the M1, J9 and M25 motorways and Luton Airport, with easy access to efficient rail links at Harpenden and St.Albans.
The property is a short walk from the village High Street which offers a wide range of local amenities including shops, health centre, pubs and restaurants. The village common is also close by.
