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
Offered to the market with the benefit of no forward chain is this well-presented, two bedroom mid-terrace.
Located in the heart of Longfield Village and just minutes from a variety of amenities, the property is a fantastic starter home, a good investment opportunity, or a great option for a downsizer, looking for village life.
The home is finished neutrally and requires no immediate work. Unlike most of its era, it also features the rare benefit of two bathrooms!
Downstairs, the home offers a spacious through lounge-diner, with stairs to the rear-right corner, leading to the first floor.
In this room, there is a feature chimney breast which could be opened up to allow for a log-burning stove.
To the rear, there is a modern fitted kitchen, beyond which is the main, family-sized bathroom – fully tiled and featuring electric shower over bath, toilet and wash/hand basin.
Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, both comfortable doubles.
Accessible via the second bedroom is an en-suite shower room for convenience, with large walk-in shower cubicle, toilet and wash-hand basin, once again.
Further benefits include gas central heating, double glazing throughout and a loft space, for storage.
There is also fantastic conversion potential in the loft, subject to the necessary consents (STPP), but with a precedent set by neighbouring properties.
Externally, the property comes with a low-maintenance rear garden. This includes a recently laid patio & seating area via steps from the back door/kitchen.
There is a large section laid-to-lawn and at the rear, there is a decking area, on which a garden studio or office could sit, quite nicely.
It should be noted that there is a right of way for the residents in the neighbouring terraced houses, which runs across the back gardens.
There is on-street, resident permit parking, with two permits available per household, plus additional visitor permits.
The village of Longfield offers a nursery, a primary school and a secondary school (academy). See school checker for more.
The area is served by public bus services, as well as school coach services to local Grammar schools.
In the village itself, there is a Waitrose, a Co-Op, a Post-Office, a Costa Coffee, a pharmacy, a doctor’s surgery, a dental practice, plus a number of dine-in and takeaway eateries.
Road links to the A2, M25, M2 and M20 are fantastic, for easy routes to the capital, the Kent Coast, or perhaps Gatwick & Heathrow airports.
Whilst Longfield station (a 2-3 minute walk!) offers a direct service to London Victoria in just over 30 minutes, Ebbsfleet International is a short drive away, which offers a service to Stratford International and St Pancras International (Kings Cross) in under 25 minutes.
