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
This smart, triple-aspect two-bedroom apartment sits on the first floor of a purpose-built low-rise block at 23 Hamilton Road, offering stylish, practical living in one of Cambridge’s most desirable areas.
Hamilton Road is a leafy street in the ever-popular De Freville Estate, just a short walk from the River Cam and within easy reach of the city centre.
The apartment is ideal for professionals, first-time buyers, or anyone looking for a well-located Cambridge home.
Beautifully presented throughout, the apartment is filled with natural light, with windows on three sides creating a wonderfully bright, airy feel.
It offers generous living space and two comfortable bedrooms.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with a range of base and eye-level units with worktops, an integrated oven, a gas hob and a sink, along with space for a slimline dishwasher and fridge.
The newly fitted bathroom has a shower, WC and basin and fitted cupboards. A real bonus is the large loft, which provides an unusual amount of storage space for an apartment.
The apartment also offers allocated off-street parking, a shared communal garden, a long lease and a share of the freehold, for long-term peace of mind.
There is double glazing throughout, and the entrance hallway has two well-sized cupboards: One provides useful storage, and the other has been cleverly fitted out as a utility cupboard, with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

For those commuting to London King’s Cross from Cambridge station, the journey can take under 50 minutes. There is no ground rent payable, as this is a share of freehold apartment.
There is a service charge of approximately £1,400 per year, which covers maintenance, including gardening and other groundskeeping, window cleaning, and a small budget for electrical and communal area repairs.
