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
HOME REPORT FOUND AT EPC SECTION Combining the character and proportions of a traditional property with a beautifully presented modern interior, Lower Flat, Smithville is an impressive two-double-bedroom ground-floor home offering approximately 84m² of accommodation, its own private entrance and an excellent amount of outdoor space.
Forming the entire ground floor of an attractive two-storey building containing just two properties, the home enjoys a particularly appealing sense of privacy and independence.
Dating from around 1900, it has been thoughtfully presented to create a stylish home that is ready to move straight into.
The accommodation begins with a private entrance vestibule leading into the hallway, which provides access throughout the property.
The living room is a bright and comfortable space, offering generous proportions for both relaxing and entertaining while retaining the welcoming feel expected from a home of this period.
The modern breakfasting kitchen is another highlight, combining contemporary cabinetry and generous preparation space with room for informal dining.
It creates a practical yet sociable setting that works equally well for busy mornings or relaxed evenings at home.
There are two generously proportioned double bedrooms, providing excellent flexibility for couples, downsizers or buyers requiring a guest bedroom or dedicated home-working space.
Completing the internal accommodation is a stylish modern shower room, finished with a clean contemporary aesthetic. Outside, Smithville continues to impress.
The property benefits from its own driveway and garage, providing valuable off-street parking alongside additional storage.
A private sun patio creates an inviting outdoor area for morning coffee, summer dining or simply relaxing when the weather allows.
A Great Place to Live Lower Flat, Smithville, Vellore Road enjoys an established position within the popular village of Maddiston, offering an appealing balance between village living and everyday convenience.
