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
Property description Creightons Estate Agents are pleased to present a detached bungalow in the desirable village of Birstall.
Set back on a private drive within a generous plot, the property offers ample parking and a beautifully landscaped, private garden.
Internally the bungalow provides flexible accommodation, with features adapted for disability access both inside and out. The property is offered with no upward chain.
Location Birstall lies approximately three miles north of Leicester city centre, within the Charnwood borough of Leicestershire.
As the largest village in the borough and part of the greater Leicester urban area, it provides a wide range of local amenities, including supermarkets, a garden centre, independent shops and several schools.
The village benefits from attractive green spaces such as Watermead Country Park, with lakes and recreational areas, and the scenic Grand Union Canal.
Known for its history and strong community spirit, Birstall is well suited to families and professionals alike. Accommodation On entering, a welcoming hallway provides access to all principal rooms.
The living area is a generous L-shaped open-plan space with a brick feature fireplace and direct access to a conservatory.
The kitchen is fitted with wall and base units, complementary worktops and a tiled splashback.
It has been adapted to accommodate wheelchair use and includes an integrated oven, gas hob with extractor and space for a fridge/freezer.
Adjoining the kitchen, a utility room offers space for a washing machine and dryer and has a service door leading to the rear garden.
Off the living area there is an additional versatile room suitable as a bedroom or home office. Internal glazed doors separate the living spaces from the sleeping accommodation.
There are two double bedrooms overlooking the front of the property; the principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes. A family bathroom serves the accommodation.
Outside The rear garden provides a peaceful outdoor environment for relaxation and entertaining, with a paved patio and disability ramps for accessibility.
The garden is mainly lawn with mature trees, shrubs and a vegetable patch. The driveway accommodates several vehicles and leads to a detached single garage.
