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
Offering great potential for further extension or an attic conversion, this semi-detached bungalow has a larger than average garden compared with similar properties and benefits from an adjacent garage and generous driveway.
The Property Whether you're seeking the convenience of single-level living in an accessible village setting or looking for a property with excellent future potential, this attractively priced bungalow presents a fantastic opportunity.
Occupying a slightly larger plot than neighbouring properties, it offers plenty of scope for extension or enhancement, making it equally appealing to families wishing to create a spacious long-term home tailored to their needs.
Situated in a welcoming and well-connected village community, there are numerous local activities and amenities to enjoy.
The property also benefits from a peaceful position away from busy roads, while the village hall, which hosts a variety of events, and the popular cricket club are both within easy walking distance.
Accommodation A spacious entrance lobby provides ample room for coats and outdoor wear, leading through to a generously proportioned sitting room featuring a feature fireplace.
Sliding double-glazed patio doors open into the conservatory, which enjoys direct access to the rear garden and also connects conveniently to the adjoining garage.
An inner hallway leads from the sitting room to two well-sized double bedrooms overlooking the front of the property.
The second bedroom is currently arranged as a separate dining room, while the principal bedroom benefits from an extensive range of fitted furniture, including wardrobes and overhead storage units.
The bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, wash hand basin, WC, and a heated towel rail.
The galley-style kitchen is equipped with a range of fitted units and a stainless-steel sink with drainer, with space for both an electric cooker and washing machine.
Beyond the kitchen, a useful extension provides additional versatile space that could serve as a breakfast / dining or seating area, as it would comfortably accommodate a small table and chairs.
This area enjoys a pleasant outlook across the rear garden.
Outside Set back from the village road, the property is approached via a good-sized front lawned garden, attractively planted with trees and shrubs.
A driveway to the side provides off-road parking and leads to the adjoining single garage, which is fitted with an up-and-over door, power, and lighting.
The garage also benefits from an internal opening into the conservatory, offering convenient access.
To the rear, the property enjoys an unusually generous garden compared with similar homes, offering a high degree of privacy.
Predominantly laid to lawn, it is complemented by a mature apple tree, a flowering cherry, and a selection of evergreens, providing year-round interest and structure.
At the far end of the garden there is a hardstanding area, and an outside tap is conveniently positioned close to the bungalow.
