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 immaculately presented two-bedroom semi-detached house enjoys a peaceful setting on the rural fringes of Gorebridge, a popular Midlothian town well connected by bus, road, and rail links.
Occupying a generous plot with a private driveway and enclosed gardens to the front and rear, the home offers bright, stylish interiors with excellent storage and versatile living space.
Fanning off the entrance hall are a reception room and a sunroom, both south-facing and enjoying sun throughout the day.
The tile-floored living/dining room is arranged around an elegant fireplace with a traditional-style electric stove and flows into the kitchen, whilst the comfortably carpeted sunroom opens onto the rear garden.
Spanning the rear of the ground floor with further garden access, the exceptionally well-appointed kitchen features a striking two-tone finish with white shaker-style cabinetry, task lighting, dark stone-effect worktops, matching flooring, and sleek black fixtures.
Integrated appliances comprise a wall oven, induction hob with a hood, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge freezer, and wine fridge, whilst additional built-in storage enhances practicality.
Upstairs, a naturally lit landing leads to two double bedrooms, both benefiting from fitted wardrobes and further built-in storage.
The principal bedroom spans the full south-facing front elevation with twin windows and oak-inspired flooring, whilst the second bedroom is softly carpeted.
Completing the first floor is a bright shower room with an aqua-panelled enclosure, vanity storage, and a WC. Gas central heating and full double glazing ensure year-round comfort and efficiency.
Outside, the neatly gravelled front garden and enclosed rear garden have both been designed for low maintenance, with the rear additionally featuring a seating deck, artificial lawn, and high fencing for added privacy.
The paved driveway provides convenient private parking. Extras: All fitted flooring, blinds, light fixtures, electric stove and fireplace, and integrated appliances are included in the sale.
