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
Situated on a substantial corner plot within a popular residential location, this extended 2-bedroom detached bungalow was originally constructed by renowned local builder Murdoch Smith as a show home and offers flexible accommodation, generous outdoor space and excellent parking facilities.
The property is approached via low-maintenance front garden grounds incorporating mature fruit trees, shrubs and lawn areas, all fully enclosed for privacy.
A particularly large side plot provides excellent outdoor space, while a detached garage offing superb storage and parking options.
A new UPVC front door opens into a welcoming reception hallway finished with quality LVT flooring.
Bedroom 1 is a well-proportioned single room featuring floor-to-ceiling mirrored wardrobes, while Bedroom 2 is a generous double bedroom, also benefiting from extensive mirrored wardrobe storage.
The hallway provides access to a useful storage cupboard housing the Worcester Bosch combi boiler together with additional shelving.
The boiler was professionally serviced within the past week, offering added peace of mind for prospective purchasers.
A further notable feature is the substantial loft space, accessed via a pull-down Ramsay ladder.
Predominantly floored, the loft provides excellent storage capacity and practical space for a wide range of household requirements.
The wet room has been designed with practicality in mind and comprises non-slip flooring, wet wall panelling within the shower area, a Triton electric shower, WC and wash hand basin.
The fitted kitchen is finished with LVT flooring and offers a range of floor and wall-mounted units, tiled splashbacks, a 4-ring gas hob, electric oven, washing machine and freestanding fridge freezer.
The property has been freshly decorated throughout and benefits from recently installed windows and newly fitted blinds, creating a bright, modern and move-in-ready home.
Located at the end of the hallway, a glazed 15-pane door leads into the spacious lounge, which enjoys pleasant views over the front garden and provides a bright and comfortable living space.
A valuable extension to the side of the home has created a bright and spacious garden room, complete with carpeting, heating and sliding patio doors providing direct access to the garden grounds.
This versatile room is ideal as a second sitting room, dining area, home office or hobby room and can be enjoyed comfortably throughout the year.
Externally, the property enjoys generous garden grounds to the front and side, mature planting, lawn areas and excellent privacy.
The large corner plot, extensive parking provision and a detached garage combine to create an increasingly rare opportunity within the local market.
