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
McEwan Fraser is delighted to present this mid-terraced house, which is presented to the market in good condition.
The property has two double bedrooms, a box room/study, a spacious living and dining room, a well-proportioned kitchen, a modern bathroom, and front and rear gardens.
It also boasts gas central heating and double glazing.
The house requires a degree of cosmetic upgrading and represents an excellent opportunity for a buyer keen to make their own mark on their new home.
The accommodation is focused on the spacious living room, which is dual-aspect and naturally bright.
The living room has plenty of space for a large suite and a formal dining table, and the new owner will have plenty of flexibility to create their ideal entertaining space.
The kitchen is accessed from the living room and includes a generous range of quality base and wall-mounted units. There is a mixture of integrated and free-standing appliances.
Climbing the stairs, the first-floor landing gives access to both bedrooms, the study, and the bathroom. Bedroom one is a bright and attractive bedroom that overlooks the front garden.
There is integrated storage and plenty of space for free-standing furniture. The second double bedroom overlooks the rear garden and also has integrated storage.
The box room is the perfect place for a home office or nursery. Currently, it is fitted with a custom frame and mattress (brand new), which can stay with the property if needed.
The accommodation is completed by the shower room, which has wet walls and a large mains shower. There is a low-maintenance front garden and an enclosed rear garden largely laid to lawn.
