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
Guide Price £525,000-£550,000 An extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of SE25’s most impressive residences - this stunning four-bedroom maisonette occupies the entire top floor of the iconic Grange Hill House, a detached Victorian villa built in the 1850s.
Offering an expansive 1,700 sq ft of internal space, the home boasts grand proportions, high ceilings, and striking, far-reaching southerly views.
Set within what was once an enclave of the prestigious Falkland Park Estate, the villa was originally designed to maximise its elevated position, turning its back to the road to take full advantage of the panoramic views.
It has since been sensitively converted into just three residences, with a side addition providing private access to the upper maisonettes.
Inside, the property offers a striking entrance hall leading to four spacious double bedrooms, a bright and well-appointed separate kitchen with direct access to a private balcony, a contemporary three-piece bathroom, and an impressive dual-aspect reception room that showcases extensive views across South London - offering incredible views to the southwest, towards Surrey and Berskire, offering stunning sunsets and panoramic views of fireworks displays.
The layout and scale of the home make it an ideal choice for families, those needing work-from-home space, or buyers seeking a statement property with period character and modern comfort.
Offering off-street parking and garage space as well as front garden demised to the upper floor flat - which has scope for redesigning to create a private garden area.
The location is equally compelling.
Grange Hill is a peaceful, tree-lined street within easy walking distance of Norwood Junction Station, providing fast and direct services to London Bridge, Victoria, and the Thameslink network, as well as the London Overground to Shoreditch and Highbury & Islington.
Excellent local schools, including Harris Academy South Norwood and St Mark’s Primary, serve the area, while nearby green spaces such as South Norwood Lakes and Grangewood Park offer a welcome escape from city life.
Crystal Palace’s vibrant Triangle, with its mix of independent cafés, shops, and restaurants, is just a stroll away (0.7mi), completing the appeal of this rare and remarkable home.
