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.

The ground floor also provides a welcoming living room, an additional dining room or home office, a useful hallway and excellent practical space, a handy cellar for storage and externally a good sized workshop that subject to consents could be developed to a suit a variety of purposes.
