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.

Want a Move-In Ready Bungalow With The Flexibility To Expand Later?
This 2-bed single storey home in a lovely West Carlisle cul-de-sac has a sunroom that looks out to low maintenance gardens, a large garage and gives you the chance to go up the world.
Property ref: KD0516 Set in a quiet little pocket on the western edge of the city, this semi-detached bungalow is ideal if you want the ease of single-level living without giving up on space or future options.
It’s been well looked after and is in good condition throughout, so you can settle in straight away - so no renovation stress or costly surprises.
The layout is simple and straightforward but flows well, with a bright sitting room that leads to a kitchen-diner with ample storage space in the fitted units and space for a small dining table.
Both bedrooms are a decent size, and the sunroom off the main bedroom adds a lovely extra spot for morning coffee or throwing the doors open to the garden on a summer evening.
The low maintenance garden gives you outside space to enjoy without spending all weekend mowing.
Block paving to the front and side means easy maintenance and off-street parking, with a large detached garage that’s perfect for storage, a workshop or just knowing your car’s safe and secure.
If you do need more storage space, the loft is already boarded, with a Velux window to bring in the light.
It’s currently accessed via a loft ladder but it does give you real potential to add another usable room or two by adding a dormer - something others on the street have already done.
Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac, the community centre, Spar and The Reiver pub are just a couple of streets away.
It only takes 10 minutes to drive into town (or 30mins on the bus) and if you’re heading further afield it’s easy to link up with the Western Bypass at the Orton Rd roundabout.
If you’ve been looking for a single storey home that’s ready when you are - but with enough potential to grow if you ever need more space - this could be just the one.
Bungalows are always popular so I’m expecting plenty of interest - call Karl Dixon to arrange a viewing.
