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
An Elegant and Spacious Four-Bedroom Detached Home, Set Within Private Grounds Set behind handsome wrought iron gates, Villa Lisboa is a beautiful detached residence combining impressive interiors with superb gardens, a long driveway, and a high degree of privacy, that was rebuilt from the ground up in 2016.
A grand entrance hallway welcomes you into the home, where a solid oak staircase and classic panelling make an immediate statement.
The heart of the house is the generous kitchen/breakfast room , fitted with a central island, sleek granite worktops and ample space for informal dining.
Adjoining this is a formal dining room with sliding patio doors opening onto the garden, and a separate living room featuring a striking marble fireplace and French doors to the rear terrace – a wonderful space for both family living and entertaining.
The ground floor further offers two well-proportioned bedrooms and a luxurious four-piece family bathroom , beautifully finished to a high standard.
Upstairs, the master suite is of impressive proportions, complete with integrated sliding wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room.
A further spacious double bedroom with Velux windows completes the first floor. Externally, the property is equally appealing.
The front gardens are mainly gravelled with mature shrubs and flower beds, complementing the generous driveway and enhancing the home’s kerb appeal.
Side access leads to the rear gardens , which are predominantly laid to level lawn, interspersed with gravelled areas, and feature a delightful patio accessed directly from the living room.
Enclosed by mature hedging, the gardens provide a tranquil and private haven.
To the side elevation sits a detached garage with a remote-controlled electric door, PVCu double-glazed pedestrian door with matching side window, and the benefit of power and lighting.
