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
Detached family home set within a cul de sac. Kitchen with bi fold doors, utility, ensuite to main bedroom plus neutral decor throughout. Landscaped garden.
OVERVIEW Built in 2019, this modern home is perfect for family living and boasts an excellent village location.
Forming part of a well-designed development by Story Homes, the property has well balanced accommodation over two floors.
A bay windowed lounge has space for relaxation and study and the kitchen diner at the rear has bi fold doors to the landscaped garden and a sleek contemporary finish.
A utility and cloakroom WC can also be ticked off 'must have' list.
