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 very well-proportioned four-double-bedroom detached family home, in need of modernisation and offering excellent scope for further enhancement.
Positioned at the head of an established residential cul-de-sac, the property benefits from convenient access to all the amenities of Pontyclun.
A parquet-floored ENTRANCE PORCH opens into a central HALLWAY with an ornate half-turn staircase rising to the first floor.
Just off the hall lies a partially tiled WC with a traditionally styled low-level toilet, hand basin, and frosted window.
To the left is the spacious, dual-aspect LIVING ROOM, enjoying abundant natural light, fitted carpet, and a polished marble fireplace.
A large window overlooks the front garden, while an additional window and glazed door provide direct access to the rear garden.
Internal patterned-glazed timber bifold doors open into the DINING ROOM, which enjoys pleasant garden views, fitted carpet, a central ceiling light, and sliding doors leading into the KITCHEN.
The fully fitted timber KITCHEN offers plenty of storage with wall and base units, laminate countertops, and a complementary breakfast-bar peninsula.
Integrated appliances include a high-level oven/grill, and electric hob. A large window frames the rear garden beautifully and provides excellent natural light.
The BOOT ROOM / UTILITY has plumbing for white goods, tiled flooring, strip lighting, and a part-glazed door and window to the rear garden.
A door opposite leads into the covered CARPORT, where an external boiler cupboard can also be accessed.
Completing the ground floor accommodation is the second SITTING ROOM, with fitted carpet and a front-facing window.
Upstairs, a spacious part-galleried LANDING features a large double airing and linen cupboard, attic hatch access, and a generous front-facing window.
Four well-proportioned double BEDROOMS and a contemporary FAMILY BATHROOM complete the first floor. BEDROOMS 1 and 2 are positioned at the rear of the property and enjoy far-reaching green views.
Both have fitted carpet and ceiling lights; BEDROOM 1 includes a plumbed-in sink with mixer tap, while BEDROOM 2 benefits from a built-in double wardrobe.
BEDROOMS 3 and 4 are front-facing doubles, each with fitted carpet, a central pendant light, and built-in double wardrobes.
Externally, a front gravel-and-resin DRIVEWAY provides parking and leads to the large CARPORT, accessed via a shared private lane.
The beautifully landscaped FRONT GARDEN features well-kept lawns on either side of a paved pathway to the front door.
The fully landscaped REAR GARDEN includes a large paved patio extending onto a rolling lawn with established shrubbery and planted borders.
The garden enjoys a favourable aspect with panoramic views over green fields, forestry, and the River Ely.
