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
A well maintained and versatile semi-detached dormer bungalow offering spacious and flexible accommodation, excellent potential to extend subject to the relevant planning permission and the added benefit of no upward chain.
The property is set behind off-road driveway parking, which leads to a full-length garage and the front door opening into a welcoming entrance hall.
To the front is a spacious lounge featuring an attractive brick fireplace and an open staircase rising to the first floor, where there are two double bedrooms.
The kitchen is positioned to the side and benefits from a useful pantry cupboard, along with direct access into the full-length garage with additional fitted units and utility area.
This provides exciting potential to extend the existing kitchen into the garage space, subject to the relevant planning permission, creating a larger open-plan kitchen and living area if desired.
A door from the kitchen leads into an inner hallway with useful built-in storage and access to a re-fitted shower room, complete with an oversized walk-in shower, together with a separate WC.
The principal bedroom is situated to the rear and is a generous double complemented by full-length fitted wardrobes.
A further versatile fourth bedroom is currently utilised as a dining room and features sliding patio doors opening directly onto the delightful rear garden, making this an equally attractive space for dining, relaxing or use as an additional bedroom.
Offering an excellent degree of flexibility across both floors, this is a superb opportunity for buyers looking for a home they can adapt to suit their individual needs, with further potential to extend subject to planning permission and the significant advantage of no upward chain.
