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
"“The flexibility of the layout is a real strength here.
Having an en-suite bedroom downstairs gives the house an extra dimension, while the main family accommodation and west-facing garden mean it still works very naturally as a five-bedroom home.
Combined with the cul-de-sac position and walking distance to Park Mead School, it is a layout and location that make particular sense for family life.” Gavin Amberton - Chantries & Pewleys Sylvaways Close places the house within a cul-de-sac setting in Cranleigh, with the particular advantage of being within walking distance of Park Mead School.
The house is set back behind a large driveway, with the detached single garage positioned alongside.
The accommodation extends to approximately 1,603 sq ft excluding the garage and has developed into a flexible five-bedroom layout across two floors.
The sitting room is the largest of the principal reception spaces and has windows across the rear together with doors opening directly onto the garden terrace.
This gives the room a strong connection to the outside with the fireplace providing a focal point within the room.
The dining room also sits at the rear of the house with double doors open directly onto the garden and provides access to the utility room and downstairs W.C.
The kitchen is arranged separately, with fitted cabinetry running along both sides and around the far end.
There is extensive worktop space, together with a range-style cooker and a large fridge freezer. Rooflights bring additional natural light into the central section of the room.
A separate study is positioned off the hallway. Its separation from the main living rooms makes it a useful dedicated workspace without taking a bedroom out of the accommodation.
One of the more useful elements of the house is the additional bedroom on the ground floor. Positioned towards the front of the property, it has its own en-suite shower room.
This creates a genuine fifth bedroom away from the first-floor accommodation and gives the house flexibility for guests or changing family requirements.
Four bedrooms are arranged around the first-floor landing. The principal bedroom is a notably generous room, with fitted wardrobes providing substantial storage and an en-suite bathroom.
The remaining three bedrooms give the first floor a practical four-bedroom arrangement. A separate family bathroom serves these rooms and includes a bath with shower attachment.
Together with the principal en-suite and ground-floor shower room, the bathroom arrangement is spread conveniently across both levels of the house.
The rear garden faces west and is divided into distinct areas.
Immediately outside the house is a paved terrace, creating a defined place for an outdoor table and seating close to the main living accommodation.
The garden then extends away from the house, with established hedging, trees and planting around its boundaries.
The mature planting gives the garden an established backdrop, while the west-facing orientation is an important part of how the outside space can be enjoyed later in the day.
To the front, the driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a detached single garage.
