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
The Property One of five unique and very impressive properties this is an exciting opportunity to buy a substantial detached four-bedroom family house standing in its large elevated plot (approx.
0.3 acre), with views and adjoining open countryside, in this popular village close to Melksham, Trowbridge and Devizes.
Offering the potential for modernisation and extension, to create a fabulous home to your own palette.
Built in 1970 this is the only house of the five which was designed with an open kitchen diner floorplan. No onward chain.

On the first floor, there is a landing that leads to four good size bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Outside at the rear, there is a large garden, mainly laid to lawn but also very well-stocked with fruit trees. There is a wooden tool shed, and a glass greenhouse.
The property has an oil-fired boiler providing radiator central heating, along with uPVC double glazing.
