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 double-fronted detached family home located on a popular residential street in the Shirley district.
The property was constructed in 1929 and is a showcase for late 1920's craftsmanship which preserves the elegance of the interwar period, featuring authentic Crittall windows, coffered ceilings and veneer panelled walls.
The expansive ground floor offers an impressive reception hallway which measures 14' 8" x 9' 9", three distinct reception rooms, kitchen, a wc and a conservatory.
Upstairs you will find four well proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate wc as well as a laundry room.
The exterior is equally impressive, with off road parking to the front as well as secure parking behind electrically operated gates and a private garden.
A significant highlight is the detached outbuilding/annexe, currently utilised as comfortable living quarters - perfect for multi-generational living or a home studio/office.
