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 wonderful opportunity to acquire a two-bedroom detached bungalow, ideally located within walking distance of the shops and amenities in the centre of Rothley Village.
The property is offered for sale with no upward chain and boasts a private south-west facing garden.
Situated on Howe Lane, an অত্য popular location within the village centre, the bungalow is set back from the road behind a five-bar gate, providing off-road parking and an attractive frontage.
A single detached garage is also positioned to the rear, accessed via gates from the main driveway. The entrance hall provides access to all internal accommodation and includes loft access.
A particularly useful feature is the dedicated cloakroom for coats and shoes, complete with radiator, double glazed window, and carpeting.
An airing cupboard housing the Baxi boiler is also located off the hallway. The lounge diner is positioned at the front of the property, enjoying pleasant views over the front garden.
Double glazed patio doors to the side aspect allow for an abundance of natural light. The bungalow benefits from two double bedrooms.
The main bedroom is situated at the rear and features fitted wardrobes, a dressing table, two radiators, and a double glazed window overlooking the south-west facing garden.
Bedroom two is also a double room, with a side aspect window and fitted wardrobes.
The bathroom has been thoughtfully adapted into a modern shower room, comprising a fully enclosed shower cubicle, WC, wash basin with vanity unit, heated towel rail, and a double glazed window.
The kitchen is located at the rear and offers excellent potential for extension (subject to planning).
It is fitted with a range of wall and base units, a sink and drainer, breakfast bar, and built-in pantry.
A double glazed UPVC door provides access to the garden, alongside a large rear-facing picture window.
The brick-built single detached garage features a pitched tiled roof, an up-and-over door, a courtesy side door, and windows to both the side and rear.
An attached brick outbuilding adds further practicality. The south-west facing garden is private and well-proportioned, featuring a patio area leading onto a predominantly lawned space.
The garden is L-shaped, with an additional lawn area situated behind the garage.
Offered for sale with no upward chain, this well-presented bungalow provides excellent potential for extension and further enhancement.
