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
A charming FREEHOLD two double bedroom Victorian half house with a 52ft rear garden, double glazing throughout, located on this quiet residential street a short walk from Honor Oak Park and Forest Hill rail stations.
The house has an attractive red brick façade with a decorative gable, an arched porch and a deep red front door, and is set back behind a mature hedge and wooden fence offering privacy from the street.
The red front door opens into a shared entrance hall, from which a private door leads into the house. The ground floor has two reception rooms, one at the front and one at the back.
The front room is a light and airy living space with a bay window and a period fireplace, decorated in a neutral, contemporary style.
The dining room has an open layout and provides ample space for entertaining, with a further period fireplace and a wide opening through to the kitchen.
The kitchen has a stylish finish, with white gloss units, warm wooden worktops, metro tiling and deep navy walls.
There is a gas hob and integrated oven, plenty of storage, and a glazed door that opens straight on to the garden. The rear garden is a lovely feature of the house, extending to approximately 52ft.
There is a paved patio closest to the house, ideal for outdoor dining, and the rest of the garden is a low-maintenance lawn surrounded by raised sleeper borders and mature box hedging.
Upstairs are the two double bedrooms. The main bedroom is at the front of the house and benefits from a feature fireplace and large sash-style windows that make the room bright and airy.
The second bedroom overlooks the garden and also retains a period fireplace. It is currently set up as a home office as well as a bedroom.
The family bathroom at the back of the property is a good size and finished in a contemporary style, with a P-shaped bath with glass shower screen and shower above, pedestal basin, heated towel rail and a frosted window.
Bovill Road is approximately 5 mins walk to Honor Oak Park station where there are regular services to London Bridge (around 15mins) as well as London Overground services to Shoreditch and Highbury and Islington.
There is also easy access to the Thameslink line at Crofton Park station (around 15 mins walk) for Blackfriars, Farringdon and Kings Cross.
The trendy high street at Honor Oak Park boasts a range of independent shops, cafes, bars, a deli and several highly-recommended restaurants.
A short walk in the other direction gives access to thriving Forest Hill, with its pubs, independent shops, restaurants and highly regarded gym and swimming pool.
Nearby green leafy open spaces can be found at Blythe Hill Fields, One Tree Hill and Horniman Gardens all offering fantastic views of the London skyline.
