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
Set amongst beautifully maintained communal grounds in an exclusive development, this two double bedroom maisonette is positioned on the ground floor of the building and has its own front door.
The property is well presented and has lovely herring bone flooring throughout.
The two spacious reception rooms are at the end of the hall, each with large windows, and sliding doors allow the two rooms to be connected if preferred, offering good flexibility of use.
There are two good sized bedrooms, the largest of which has an attractive bay window, and there is a modern kitchen which overlooks the gardens and is well planned with a good range of wall and base cupboards and space for appliances.
The property has a separate bathroom and WC, both accessed from the hall. Externally, there are lovely landscaped gardens which provide a pleasant outdoor space to relax.
