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

Internally, the bungalow offers flexible accommodation, comprising two generous reception rooms that provide ample space for both relaxation and entertaining.

A separate garage provides additional secure storage or parking, ideal for those with multiple vehicles or requiring workshop space.
To the rear, a substantial mature garden awaits, featuring established planting and generous lawned areas, perfect for families, gardening enthusiasts, or those who enjoy outdoor entertaining.
The size and privacy of the garden present further scope for landscaping or extension (subject to the necessary planning consents), allowing buyers to truly capitalise on the outdoor space.
