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.

Located within the award winning Accordia development, off Brooklands Avenue.
This impressive end of terrace townhouse occupies a near central location within this prestigious city development offering established green surroundings and extensive communal spaces for residents and guests.
Outstanding independent schools, the outstanding Hills Road Sixth Form College, Cambridge Botanic Gardens and Cambridge Station are all within easy reach.
This contemporary family home extends to 2,650 sqft over four light-filled floors with two large roof terraces (east and west facing aspects) and a balcony.
The ground and first floor levels have been significantly altered and improved with extensive works carried out to relocate the kitchen to the impressive open-plan principal living area and create a family room on the ground floor level.
This creative project has added a tasteful interior finish as well as an improved practical layout, which is perfect for entertaining and day-to-day family living.
In a little more detail, the accommodation comprises a reception hall, which provides useful built-in storage leading to a large family room/home working space with a floor to ceiling, full-width window overlooking the front aspect, utility room and WC.
A triple aspect, open plan living/dining/kitchen room spans the whole of the first floor and provides access and views to the principal roof terrace (8m x 6m).
An impressive kitchen by renowned local designer Tomas Kitchen Living, is well-equipped and was relocated and fitted in 2012.
There is an extensive range of bespoke cabinetry and shelving with a full range of integrated appliances, granite and solid wood working surfaces and a central island with additional storage solutions, seating and an inset induction hob with built-in extractor.
The second-floor landing provides a study space and leads to a guest suite with access to a balcony, two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom suite.
The principal bedroom suite spans the whole of the third floor and comprises a private, west-facing roof terrace, bathroom with a separate shower cubicle and a fully fitted walk-in dressing room.
The third floor landing provides ample space for a gym/craft area. Outside, there is a large, covered parking/storage area accessed via electronically operated gates.
There is parking for three vehicles within this secure space and a side pedestrian gate for easy cycle egress.
