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
2 Virginia Orchard is a well presented two bedroom semi-detached home situated in a peaceful cul-de-sac position close to the centre of the highly sought-after village of Ruishton.
Offered to the market with vacant possession, the property has recently been mainly re-carpeted and provides comfortable accommodation ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors alike.
A particular feature of the property is the additional ground floor room, currently utilised as a utility room but offering excellent potential as a home office, study or hobby room.
The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hall with access to the utility/office space, leading through to a good size living/dining room featuring a bay window, understairs cupboard and stairs rising to the first floor.
To the rear of the property is a fitted kitchen comprising a range of wall and base units with work surfaces and tiled splashbacks.
There is space for a cooker, undercounter fridge and freezer, together with plumbing and space for a washing machine. A double glazed door provides access to the rear garden.
To the first floor are two generous bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a WC, wash hand basin, bath with tiled surround and electric shower over.
Outside, the property benefits from a fully enclosed rear garden enclosed by a combination of walling and fencing.
There is a patio area adjoining the rear of the property, with the remainder mainly laid to lawn, gated side access and a timber shed.
To the rear of the property is tandem driveway parking for two vehicles.
