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
Fairways arguably occupies one of the most pleasingly discreet residential locations in Hadleigh.
Set well back from Friars Road, the core property is positioned to the end of a 45m private driveway, where the bungalow itself is concealed from view.
The bungalow was built to an individual design and specification in the late 1990’s, and provides about 1,600sq.ft of accommodation.
A front entrance hall leads into a welcoming dining area, which provides much natural light by a part glazed roof directly above, with a window range and glazed double doors on an enclosed patio.
The dining area leads through to the main reception room which is particularly spacious, with a gas fireplace and further windows and glazed external doors.
Two internal doors lead into the uPVC garden room / conservatory, which gives panoramic views over the western part of the garden.
Opposite the dining area is the kitchen, which is fitted on four walls with worksurfaces, numerous units, and integral appliances including dishwasher and Neff oven and induction hob.
Further worksurfaces and storage facilities are fitted to the end utility room, which also houses a gas boiler.
Via a further hallway (with additional external access), the main two double bedrooms are essentially self-contained to one end, and both are served by a bathroom and a separate shower room opposite.
The remaining accommodation is a single bedroom which is accessed via the inner hall.
Outside, the parking area is to the end of the private shingle driveway, which gives access to a detached double garage with twin ‘up and over’ doors.
The private gardens surround the bungalow on all sides, although the main part is to the front and enjoys a south-facing aspect.
The gardens comprise areas of lawn which are interspersed with established shrub borders and trees, with a sheltered patio accessed via the dining and sitting room.
Set on hardstanding to the northern boundary is an open-ended timber store and an adjacent storage shed.
Location Directly overlooking the cricket ground and cemetery, Friars Road is located about 0.4 miles north of the town centre.
Hadleigh is a very popular historic market town The town offers an excellent range of local amenities including restaurants, pubs, sports facilities, a wide selection of shops and both junior and upper schools.
