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
Description Robert Vincent Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this substantial four-bedroom detached family home, situated in this popular residential location within West Wickham.
Extending to approximately 2083 sq ft (193.5 sq m), this impressive, detached property provides spacious and versatile accommodation and represents an excellent opportunity for a purchaser looking to modernise and improve a substantial family home to their own individual requirements.
The property is of timber-frame construction and requires modernisation throughout.
Whilst the house would benefit from updating, it offers excellent potential, with generous room proportions, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, extensive living accommodation and a good-sized private garden.
For buyers prepared to undertake the necessary works, the property provides an exciting opportunity to create a sizeable and individually designed family home in an established and sought-after part of West Wickham.
The accommodation The property is approached via a welcoming entrance leading into the main accommodation, with the ground floor providing a selection of well-proportioned reception and living spaces.
The principal reception room provides an excellent family living area, with generous proportions and plenty of natural light.
There is also further reception accommodation which could provide a separate dining room, family room, study or additional entertaining space, depending upon the requirements of the new owner.
The existing kitchen is well positioned within the property and, whilst requiring modernisation, offers an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to create a contemporary kitchen and dining environment tailored to their own specification.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, providing excellent accommodation for a family, guests or those requiring additional space for working from home.
The principal bedroom is of a particularly good size, with the remaining bedrooms offering a flexible combination of double bedrooms, children's rooms, guest accommodation or home-office space.
The property also benefits from two bathrooms, providing useful facilities for a growing family. Potential One of the property's principal attractions is its size and versatility.
With approximately 1851 sq ft (172.1 sq m) of internal accommodation, there is considerable scope for a purchaser to modernise, reconfigure and personalise the property to suit contemporary family living, subject always to the necessary planning permissions and building regulation approvals.
The generous footprint detached nature of the property and outside space make this an appealing proposition for purchasers who are looking for something with considerably more potential than a conventional modernised family house.
The property should therefore appeal particularly to buyers who are willing to undertake a programme of refurbishment and are looking to create their own long-term family home.
Outside The property occupies a generous plot and benefits from a good-sized private garden, providing excellent outdoor space for family use, entertaining and future landscaping.
The garden offers considerable potential for improvement and could be transformed into an attractive landscaped garden with areas for seating, entertaining and children's play.
