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 naturally bright and smartly finished studio apartment, with private balcony, on the first floor of a handsome modern development.
You're sat on a peaceful no through road in the leafy heart of Chingford here, with plentiful local greenery. At a massive 992 years, the lease won't cause you any renewal worries.
Plus there's a welcome wealth of storage just off the hallway. If you lived here...
Your artful open plan layout adds up to over 400 square feet of living space, with your twenty one foot long lounge/kitchen opening directly onto your balcony.
A generous outside spot, timber decked and sheltered, with lovely views over the grounds, this is the perfect place for a morning coffee or evening glass of wine.
Back inside, smoky grey engineered hardwood runs underfoot all the way to your sleek and pristine kitchen units at the back, home to a full suite of integrated appliances and sat below chunky space grey worktops.
Next door your bedroom's a generous 160 square foot double, plushly carpeted, while your bathroom completes things in softly-lit, five star style.
Outside and it's just five minutes on foot to Highams Park station, where the overground will get you directly to Liverpool Street in twenty three, putting the City less than a half hour away door to door.
Alternatively, just ride two stops and five minutes for Walthamstow Central, for all the delights of Walthamstow Village, or a quick swap to the Victoria line and twenty minute runs to Oxford Circus.
What else? - Date night? Vino Tap and The Stag & Lantern Micropub are both fine evening destinations, specialising in fine vintages and real ales respectively.
Both lie just moments form your front door. - Completed in 2020 the development is just three years old, with minimal ground rent and service charges.
- The open rolling greenery of Highams Park itself is just twenty minutes on foot and the perfect place to blow away the cobwebs while enjoying spectacular views over the City.

"Living in Highams Park has been amazing. My home allows an abundance of natural light with that great space for hosting friends and family.
Also, I am fortunate to work from home and commute to the office with ease that limits any inconvenience. I purchased this property as my first home and loved every single second.
The station is only a short walk with regular trains into London. There are a great variety of restaurants, stores and small businesses within walking distance.
Since being in Highams Park, I am grateful for the welcoming community and friendly neighbours I have been lucky enough to meet.
Also, the wealth of nature and green space on our doorstep has been an amazing source to wind down."
