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
Set within the sought-after New Greens area of St Albans, this spacious semi-detached home offers a brilliant balance of living space, flexibility and future potential, making it an ideal choice for growing families or those looking to settle into a well-connected neighbourhood.
From the moment you step inside, there’s a welcoming feel.
The entrance hall leads through to a bright and comfortable lounge, a lovely space to relax in the evenings or gather with friends and family.
This flows naturally into the fitted kitchen, creating a sociable layout that works well for both day-to-day life and entertaining. To the rear, the home really comes into its own.
A lean-to provides a useful transition space out to the garden and links to an additional reception room.
Whether you need a second sitting room, a playroom, a home office or even a generous ground floor bedroom, this space adapts easily to your lifestyle, with the added convenience of a cloakroom nearby.
Upstairs, you’ll find two well-proportioned bedrooms along with a family bathroom, offering comfortable accommodation with a practical layout.
Outside, the secluded rear garden is a great spot to unwind, enjoy a morning coffee or host summer barbecues. There’s also the benefit of a single garage and a driveway providing off-road parking.
Positioned within easy reach of well-regarded schools including STAGs and Townsend Secondary, and just a short distance from St Albans’ vibrant city centre with its mix of shops, pubs and restaurants, this home is perfectly placed for both families and commuters alike.
With further potential to extend, subject to the usual permissions, this is a home you can truly grow into over time.
