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 property has been extensively improved by the current owners to a very high standard, whilst the low-maintenance front and rear gardens offer complete privacy.
This contemporary and flexible home has the potential for further conversion.
Upon entering the property the reception hall gives way to the living space which includes a dual-aspect living room with the cvo gas fire-bowl creating a striking focal point, a generous-sized dining room with direct access to the kitchen, a small cloakroom, and a convenient coat cupboard.
The large, dual aspect kitchen is fitted with bespoke, solid oak units, Italian granite worktops and breakfast bar, and travertine stone flooring with electric underfloor heating.
A small porch to the side of the kitchen leads out to the garden. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, a study, and a cosy snug area which is used by the current owners as a quiet reading space.
The generously proportioned dual-aspect principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room. A separate, family bathroom with bath and shower serves the remaining bedrooms.
The landscaped rear garden is laid mainly to lawn, encircled by low-maintenance borders.
A large, stone patio is complemented by a tranquil water feature and a bespoke, hand-built timber summerhouse with power and lighting, making this an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining.
The lawned front garden also offers plenty of off-road parking on the wide, gravelled driveway which leads to an American-sized double garage, spacious enough for two vehicles as well as additional storage.
The spacious double garage offers enormous potential for easy conversion, either enlarging the current living room, or creating an additional, generously proportioned family room.
