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 beautifully presented, grade II listed four bedroom semi detached character period home.
Originally dating back to the 17th century the property retains many character features, whilst being updated and now enjoys a contemporary feel throughout.
The property is located on the southern outskirts of the town and offers accommodation spread over three floors, comprising an enclosed entrance porch, lounge with open fireplace, conservatory with double doors out to the rear garden, dining room with stairs to upper floors, fitted kitchen with door to side and a separate utility room/WC.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, whilst on the second floor there is a further bedroom.
Externally, there is a good size rear garden with a paved patio across the rear of the property and steps lead up to a lawned area with a decked seating area and storage space to the side.
There is a further covered seating area with gated access to the front, a large timber storage shed with power and light.
To the front of the property is private gated driveway parking for four vehicles.
Council Tax Band D & EPC Exempt Agents Note: The property experienced a flood event in September 2021 following groundworks undertaken as part of the construction of a residential development to the rear.
Specialist investigations concluded that the flooding resulted from the temporary removal of a long standing drainage ditch during those works. The property was fully reinstated following the event.
Subsequent reports have confirmed that the drainage ditch was reinstated in 2021 and that the property is not considered to be at any greater risk of flooding than comparable properties in the area.
The property had not experienced flooding prior to the groundworks in 2021 and has not flooded since the drainage ditch was reinstated.
Further information, including relevant reports, is available to interested parties upon request.
