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.

Description Paragon House is a delightful Grade II Listed family home dating from the mid-18th century.
Perfectly located for all that Bath has to offer, the property is peacefully positioned in a quiet enclave in Widcombe close to The Paragon School.
The property is immediately appealing to the eye, set above Lyncombe Vale Road with superb views.
Arranged over just three floors, the property provides excellent lateral accommodation, with a wealth of entertaining space on offer.
Generous proportions are provided throughout the house, with tall ceilings, large original sash windows and a plethora of original features on display including ornate plasterwork, period fireplaces and an elegant central staircase ascending from the spacious entrance hall and connecting all three floors.
The ground floor provides excellent entertaining space including a large entrance hall, as well as an adjoining reception area set behind stone pillars with attractive curved archways.
Accessed from here is the stylish modern kitchen, filled with natural light, with a large central island, integrated appliances and an AGA stove set within an original chimney breast.
Large sliding doors open on to a pretty courtyard garden, with an adjacent utility room positioned around the corner.
The impressive family room is next door, housed within a 19th century addition, which provides particularly tall ceilings, views of the front garden and oversized skylights which flood the room with natural light.
Completing this floor is a large office leading from the family room and two downstairs cloakrooms.
The first floor provides a wonderful formal drawing room, three windows across, which look south over the garden.
This impressive reception room has exposed wooden floors, original window shutters and ornate cornicework on display, as well as a withdrawing room positioned behind.
The house offers a wealth of entertaining space on the ground floor, so this room could be utilised as an incredible principal bedroom, if required.
Next door is a spacious bedroom with ensuite WC and a shower room is located across the hallway.
The top floor provides three generous bedrooms, all with south facing windows, and one with ensuite shower room.
A family bathroom and separate cloakroom are also located on this floor, making it the ideal children’s floor.

From here the path to the house leads past the lawned garden with mature herbaceous borders up to an Italianate sun terrace in front of the house, which is a perfect secluded place for al fresco dining and from which to enjoy the southerly view.
