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
The Fells Lichfield Road, Abbots Bromley Why would someone choose this home?
For its generous proportions, excellent parking and sought-after position within Abbots Bromley, together with the opportunity to update the interiors and create a home that feels entirely their own.
The Fells has been cherished by the same family for many years and is now ready to begin a new chapter.
This traditional semi-detached house offers more space than may first be expected, with a large through lounge and dining room, conservatory, three bedrooms, a separate study and useful ground-floor shower room.
There is scope to modernise, but the foundations of a very comfortable home are already here.
The rooms are well proportioned, the driveway accommodates several vehicles and the mature rear garden provides a private outdoor space close to the centre of one of Staffordshire’s most desirable villages.
The Accommodation The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, from which the principal ground-floor rooms are accessed.
Running from the front to the rear of the house, the through lounge and dining room provides a generous setting for both everyday family life and larger occasions.
There is ample space to create distinct sitting and dining areas, while windows at either end give the room a pleasant dual aspect.
At the rear, the conservatory provides an additional place to sit and enjoy the garden throughout much of the year.
It could serve equally well as a relaxed sitting room, playroom or space for hobbies.
The kitchen is practical in its present arrangement and offers an excellent opportunity for a future owner to introduce their preferred cabinetry, finishes and appliances.
Subject to the necessary permissions and professional advice, there may also be potential to reconsider the relationship between the kitchen and adjoining accommodation.
A ground-floor shower room with WC is a particularly useful feature, providing level-access showering for visiting guests or anyone wishing to plan for future needs.
Along the side of the house, a lean-to offers valuable covered storage and working space.
It is ideal for garden equipment, bicycles, muddy boots and the assortment of everyday items that are often difficult to accommodate in newer properties.
First Floor Upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms and a separate study.
The bedrooms are comfortably proportioned and provide flexibility for a family, visiting guests or anyone requiring additional space at home.
The separate study is an unusual and valuable addition, providing a dedicated place to work without sacrificing one of the main bedrooms.
The bathroom is functional and ready for updating, allowing the next owner to select fittings and finishes to suit their own taste.
Outside A generous driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to the single garage, which is fitted with an electric up-and-over door.
The rear garden has been arranged with ease of maintenance in mind, with a paved central area complemented by established trees, shrubs and planting around its boundaries.
The mature greenery provides colour, privacy and a pleasing sense of enclosure.
There is plenty of opportunity to introduce additional planting, create separate seating areas or reshape the garden over time.
Equally, its present arrangement will appeal to anyone who would prefer an outdoor space that does not demand hours of upkeep.
