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
Offered for sale with the added benefit of no onward chain is this well-proportioned detached three-bedroom home, enviably set upon a generous corner plot offering the potential to extend the property (subject to the relevant planning permissions).
Locally, you are well served for access to Shirley's vibrant high street, the city centre, central railway station, M27 motorway network, schooling for all ages, and the General Hospital.
The accommodation on the ground floor comprises the large and inviting entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading into the dual-aspect lounge/dining room, measuring over 25 ft in length, and the kitchen/breakfast room, which in turn gives access to the bright and sunny conservatory.
The conservatory provides extra living and entertaining space and enjoys direct views over the garden.
The first-floor landing provides access to the loft space and houses the three generously sized bedrooms, all of which are served by the family bathroom.
The home further benefits from a fabulous wrap-around garden with areas laid to lawn and shingle, giving you the ideal space to enjoy the summer sun.
It also benefits from a garage, providing useful additional storage, further off-street parking, or perhaps the option of creating a home gym, as well as a hardstanding area in front of the garage providing secure off-road parking.
