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.

Approach As you drive round Cygnus Gardens you will bear right and head round to the end of the Cul- De- Sac.
Next door to this home is a new build house which is currently under construction, with hoarding edging the approach to this property.
The Interior A UPVC wood-effect double glazed front door opens into a useful entrance porch, providing practical storage space for utilities and meters before leading into the main living area.
The lounge/dining room is bright and well-proportioned, with a front-facing window allowing natural light to fill the space.
Stairs lead to the first floor and there is plenty of room for both relaxing and dining.
The kitchen has been refitted with a contemporary range of wall and base units complemented by modern work surfaces and tiled splashbacks.
Integrated appliances include an oven and hob with extractor above, alongside space for additional white goods. A window to the front keeps the space bright and airy.
Upstairs, the landing benefits from built-in mirrored wardrobes providing excellent storage, along with access to the loft space and housing the Worcester combination boiler.
The bedroom is a comfortable double and enjoys a pleasant box bay window to the front, creating a bright and welcoming space.
The bathroom has also been refitted with a modern white suite including a bath with shower over, vanity wash basin and concealed flush WC, finished with stylish tiling.
The Garden & Frontage To the front of the property is a small garden area laid mainly to lawn with hedging to the boundary, creating a pleasant and welcoming approach.
The home also benefits from allocated parking, the title plan we have seen indicates the parking is in front of the garden, edging the hedging.
This could accommodate two cars, but this is our interpretation and needs to be verified by your solicitor on offer acceptance.
