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
Positioned within one of Greenmount's most desirable residential locations, this beautifully presented detached true bungalow offers approximately 1,523 sq ft of versatile accommodation, spectacular views towards Holcombe Hill and Peel Tower , beautifully maintained wraparound gardens and the convenience of single-storey living, all within easy reach of the village's excellent amenities.
Occupying a generous corner position on the ever-popular Belvedere Avenue, the property is approached via beautifully manicured wraparound lawns bordered by mature conifer hedging.
The established planting creates an excellent degree of privacy without compromising the abundance of natural light that flows into the home.
A private driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the integral garage. The garage itself has been thoughtfully divided by stud partitioning into three practical areas.
To the front is a useful storage space, the central section currently serves as a workshop, whilst the rear has been adapted into a dedicated utility area.
For those seeking additional vehicle storage, the partitioning could easily be removed to reinstate a full-length integral garage.
A part-glazed composite entrance door opens into a welcoming reception hallway, setting the tone for the spacious accommodation beyond.
Immediately off the hallway is the third double bedroom, currently utilised as a home office, making it ideal for those working remotely whilst remaining a generous bedroom if required.
There is also access to a useful storage cupboard housing the combination boiler before the hallway opens into the principal living accommodation.
The superb open-plan lounge and dining room is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the home.
Extending from the front of the property through to the rear, this impressive space enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout the day.
A large front-facing picture window perfectly frames the stunning outlook towards Holcombe Hill and the iconic Peel Tower, whilst sliding patio doors from the dining area open directly onto the south-facing rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
One of the property's most appealing design features is its thoughtful layout.
The living accommodation occupies one side of the bungalow, whilst the bedrooms and bathroom are positioned on the opposite side, creating a clear distinction between entertaining and relaxation spaces.
The modern kitchen, installed approximately six years ago, has been finished in contemporary high-gloss white cabinetry complemented by contrasting work surfaces.
There is an excellent range of integrated appliances including an electric hob, high-level double oven, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer, whilst a breakfast bar provides the perfect spot for informal dining or a morning coffee.
Leading directly from the kitchen is a spacious conservatory overlooking the rear garden.
French doors provide further access outside, making this an excellent additional reception room throughout much of the year.
A further internal door connects conveniently into the utility area of the former garage. The sleeping accommodation continues to impress with two further generous double bedrooms.
The principal bedroom enjoys delightful front-facing views towards Peel Tower and benefits from a comprehensive range of fitted wardrobes, whilst the second double bedroom overlooks the private rear garden.
Serving the bedrooms is a beautifully maintained four-piece family bathroom, fully tiled throughout and comprising a panelled bath, separate shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC, with an obscure glazed window allowing plenty of natural light whilst maintaining privacy.
Outside, the south-facing rear garden has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind, predominantly laid with quality flagging to create a wonderful entertaining space with ample room for pots, planters and outdoor furniture.
The existing fencing sits within mature conifer boundaries and offers the potential, subject to a purchaser's requirements, to reclaim additional garden space if desired.
