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
This two bedroom mid terrace home is ideally situated in the highly sought after Old Town area, renowned for its excellent school catchments and close proximity to a wide range of local amenities.
Offered chain free, the property features a front garden which, subject to the usual consents, offers excellent potential to be converted into off street parking, as many neighbouring properties have already done.
The internal accommodation includes a living space, a fitted kitchen with a separate utility room and two well proportioned bedrooms.
To the rear, the property boasts a large garden, ideal for families and entertaining, complete with a brick-built garden store/shed.
The loft has been partially converted to create an additional loft room, already benefiting from a fixed staircase and power, although further finishing is required.
This offers excellent scope for buyers looking to add value and tailor the space to their needs, making this an attractive opportunity in a popular and convenient location.
