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
An exceptional opportunity to acquire an attractive, characterful Edwardian detached family home requiring some modernisation and investment, yet with a wonderful mature plot positioned close to Farnham Park in Upper Hale.
Available with no onward chain, the property retains much of its original charm and would benefit from a programme of modernisation and updating throughout.
There is also potential for enlargement due to the large garden to the rear and side.
This makes it a wonderful blank canvas for a discerning buyer looking to put their own stamp on a property, while offering substantial scope to significantly extend the ground and first floor living spaces to create a substantial long-term family home, subject to the usual planning consents.
Upon entering the property, a welcoming hallway guides you into the principal living areas, both of which boast excellent potential for reconfiguration.
To the front is a bright and airy sitting room, beautifully illuminated by a large character bay window and centred around a feature brick-built fireplace.
Directly behind sits a separate, well-proportioned dining room that overlooks the rear courtyard area.
There is clear potential here to knock through and create a more modern, open-plan layout if desired.
The kitchen is currently fitted with a range of classic white cabinetry, contrasting dark countertops, and integrated cooking facilities, with a separate utility/lean-to area leading out to the rear.
Practicality is further enhanced by an integrated ground floor store room located towards the back of the plot.
Given the substantial depth of the rear garden, this entire back section of the house represents a prime opportunity for a large-scale kitchen/family room extension.
Ascending to the first floor, the landing leads to three comfortable bedrooms.
Bedrooms one and two are spacious doubles featuring ample room for freestanding or built-in wardrobes, while bedroom three serves perfectly as a home office, nursery, or small single room.
A traditional three-piece family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation, all of which would benefit from cosmetic updates and layout optimization.
Outside & Gardens The exterior of the property is a true highlight and underscores its development potential.
To the front, the property boasts an attractive frontage with a mature lawn, established hedging, and a brick-paved driveway providing convenient off-road parking and access to the attached single garage.
To the rear, the extensive garden is predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature trees, vibrant shrub borders, and a central paved pathway leading to a detached timber storage shed.
The sheer size of the plot provides a tranquil outdoor haven and ensures that even a significant extension to the main dwelling would leave a beautifully proportioned, generous outdoor space intact.
Additional information Materials used in construction: Brick and tile roof.
