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.

The property comes equipped with economy 7 storage heating and sealed unit double glazing.
It has small walled garden to the front and side access through to the rear garden, which is south facing with raised beds and patio area with pergola. There is a shed for storage.
It also benefits from off street parking space to the front. Internally there are two double bedrooms on the first floor both of which give delightful views over the countryside.

Space for a fridge/freezer is available. Stylish laminate floor has been laid both here and in the bathroom.
