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
**viewings highly recommended** Nestled on Uplands Drive in the charming village of Saltford, Bristol, this remarkable detached house is a true gem.
Originally constructed in the 1950s, the property has undergone a comprehensive programme of extension and refurbishment since our clients acquired it in 2011, resulting in a stunning contemporary home that boasts high-end specifications throughout.
Spanning three floors, this residence features three spacious reception rooms, five well-appointed bedrooms, and three modern bathrooms, making it ideal for families or those who enjoy entertaining.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room, which showcases a bespoke William Ball kitchen complete with Silestone work surfaces and built-in Neff appliances.
The living room is enhanced by bi-folding doors that seamlessly connect the indoor space to the westerly facing enclosed rear garden, where you will find an outdoor kitchen, perfect for al fresco dining.
Additional highlights include a wood-burning stove that adds warmth and character to the living area, underfloor heating on the first and second floors for added comfort, and a Juliette balcony in the master suite that offers delightful views of the garden.
The property also benefits from ample off-street parking, an integral garage, and a unique wood-clad annex in the garden, currently utilised as a cinema room, complete with its own kitchen and wet room.
Saltford is well-regarded for its excellent transport links to both Bristol and Bath, as well as its local amenities and highly regarded schools in both Saltford and nearby Keynsham.
