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
Light and beautifully presented, three-bedroom, semi-detached house, with gardens and an allocated parking space.
Set in a quiet, modern, factored residential development, located in Bilston, by Roslin, to the south of Edinburgh.
A welcoming entrance provides access to this wonderful home, leading through to the living room, which is finished with light, tasteful décor and contemporary flooring throughout, benefiting from a wall-mounted TV point and direct access to the private garden, making it an ideal space for entertaining guests.
The kitchen/dining room is modern in finish, continuing the matching contemporary flooring from the living room, and features granite-effect worktops with matching units, a tiled splashback, a stainless-steel sink with drainer, and integrated appliances including a double oven, gas hob with canopy above, washing machine, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer.
The property includes three large storage cupboards, one with a power supply and sufficient space to be used as a utility cupboard for a tumble dryer.
Leading upstairs, the carpeted landing provides access to all bedrooms, each finished with carpeted flooring and light décor throughout, with the master bedroom enjoying a fitted wardrobe and the added benefit of an en-suite shower room fitted with an electric shower cubicle.
Completing the property is an upgraded family bathroom, comprising a three-piece suite with a bath. Bilston is a small village in Midlothian, situated about six miles south of Edinburgh city centre.
Favoured by commuters, the area offers convenient access to the Edinburgh city bypass and strong public transport links to the capital and nearby villages.
It is a sought-after residential location, with nearby Penicuik and Straiton Retail Park providing a wide range of shops, supermarkets, and leisure facilities, including one of Scotland’s two ikea stores.
Residents also benefit from various recreational options such as local golf courses, Hillend Ski Slope, and the renowned Rosslyn Chapel.
A variety of primary and secondary schools are available in the surrounding areas, including the highly regarded Bilston Primary school, which is within walking distance, and a new High school is being built in 2026.
