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
Tucked away within a quiet pocket , this impressive home delivers far more than you`d expect from first glance.
With a detached garage, stylish interiors, spacious living areas and a beautifully landscaped garden, this is the kind of property that gives buyers flexibility and practicality.
Five things our current owners love about their home: 1. Proximity to primary school. 2. Excellent access to both Edinburgh and Glasgow via car/bus as only 5 minutes from M8. 3. Quiet Area. 4.
Friendly Neighbours. 5. Walk in shower and separate bath.
The lounge instantly sets the tone with its sleek modern finish, feature media wall and contemporary fireplace creating a stylish but comfortable space to relax.
The decor throughout the home has been carefully chosen with soft neutral tones and quality finishes giving every room a bright and polished feel.
The kitchen and dining area is a fantastic size and works perfectly for modern family life.
There`s excellent storage and workspace alongside plenty of room for dining, entertaining or simply gathering together at the end of the day.
Flowing directly from here is the bright sunroom, a brilliant additional living area overlooking the garden that could easily become your morning coffee spot, playroom or cosy second sitting area.
Upstairs, all three bedrooms are well proportioned and beautifully presented, with the principal bedroom offering fitted mirrored wardrobes.
The family bathroom is another standout feature with a separate walk in shower and bath creating a space that feels modern, practical and luxurious all at once.
The loft conversion has been transformed into a fantastic additional storage space. Outside is where this home really separates itself.

The rear garden has been designed with entertaining in mind with generous patio space, and lawn creating the perfect setup for summer evenings with family and friends.
