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
Offering freshly presented accommodation in the well established Kingsknowe area, this appealing main door flat has recently been repainted and fitted with new flooring throughout.
The property is set within attractive communal grounds and benefits from residents’ parking, making it a convenient choice for a range of buyers.
Well placed for local amenities and transport links, including Kingsknowe railway station, it combines a pleasant residential setting with easy access to Edinburgh city centre.
A small flight of steps leads down to the main entrance and into a welcoming hallway with useful storage.
Peacefully positioned to the rear, the lounge/dining room is complemented by a fitted kitchen featuring a range of wall and base units with co-ordinated worktops and tiled splashbacks.
There are two double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes, while the principal bedroom also has an en-suite shower room. A bathroom with a crisp white suite completes the accommodation.
Further benefits include a brand new boiler, gas central heating and double glazing. This property has been subject to virtual staging to show the effect of makeover on the property.
