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
Ideally positioned within the highly sought after Appletree Village, just off Stockton Lane to the east of York city centre, this substantial four bedroom detached bungalow offers an exceptional amount of versatile living space which has been enhanced by the current owner.
Set in one of York’s most desirable residential locations, the property enjoys excellent access to the city centre, while also being well placed for the amenities of Heworth Village, Vangarde Shopping Park, well regarded schools and nearby green spaces, making it a superb choice for a wide range of buyers.
The property has been thoughtfully improved since its previous sale, most notably with the removal of the old conservatory to create a stunning new rear reception room.
This impressive addition features a striking lantern ceiling and bi-folding doors opening onto the garden, creating a bright and stylish living space that perfectly connects the indoors with the outside.
Internally, a welcoming entrance hallway leads through to a spacious front reception room filled with natural light from its large windows.
The flexible layout offers a superb balance of living and bedroom accommodation, with up to three bedrooms on the ground floor alongside a lounge, snug/study, dining kitchen, a brand new utility room with all new insulation, new units and radiator, a storage area and family bathroom complete this floor.
To the first floor is a generous principal bedroom with ensuite, together with an additional sitting room which could equally serve as a dressing room, hobby room or further bedroom if required.
Outside, the property continues to impress.
The owner has thoughtfully re-landscaped the front in favour of more lawn, creating a greener, more attractive setting alongside a driveway for up to four cars.
The rear garden enjoys a desirable south-facing aspect and benefits from a good degree of privacy thanks to mature boundaries. A good sized integral garage completes this impressive home.
