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 rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial detached five bedroom detached bungalow set within a generous, private plot in the highly desirable village of Quainton.
Offering outstanding potential for renovation, extension, or redevelopment (subject to planning permission), this property presents an ideal prospect for developers, investors, or buyers seeking a significant project with long-term upside.
The existing accommodation is both spacious and versatile, comprising a kitchen/breakfast room, lounge, snug, five bedrooms, and two bathrooms.
The flexible layout lends itself perfectly to reconfiguration, with scope to create annex accommodation, multi-generational living, or a refurbished family home.
Further enhancing the opportunity is the loft space, which has been designed with potential for conversion to provide an additional bedroom with en-suite (subject to planning permission).
Externally, the property benefits from a well maintained garden offering a high degree of privacy, along with a garage and driveway parking.
Of particular interest is the potential building plot within the grounds, currently occupied by a static caravan.
This area benefits from separate access via White Hart Field, and there was previously a detached dwelling on this site, presenting further exciting development possibilities (subject to planning permission).
Quainton is a picturesque village located in the Aylesbury Vale district of Buckinghamshire.
It is situated approximately 7 miles west of the market town of Aylesbury and 6 miles east of the town of Bicester. One of the village's most notable landmarks is St.
Mary's Church, a 13th-century building with a distinctive octagonal spire.

The windmill is now a museum, open to the public, where visitors can learn about the history of milling and see the workings of the machinery.
The village also has the local attraction of the Railway Museum and Cafe. In terms of amenities, Quainton has a nursery school, primary school, a post office, and village store and a pub.
Residents of the village also make use of the two village halls that offer community clubs for a wide demographic.
The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and offers a range of outdoor activities, including walking, wildlife garden, cycling, and horse riding.
