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 fabulous two double bedroom detached bungalow occupies a very attractive and generous plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position.
The home is beautifully presented, having been very much loved and maintained by the current owner.
The gardens are especially well tended with the rear garden backing out onto school recreational grounds giving the property a wonderful feeling of space and privacy.
The bungalow is conveniently located for a wide range of local amenities including a regularly serviced bus route.
The accommodation includes an entrance porch, which helps keeps the heat in and a place to quickly drop any shopping in poor weather.
The porch leads through to an entrance hall, which has a useful cloakroom cupboard and doors off to all rooms.
One of the most appealing aspects of the home is the fact that both bedrooms are situated toward the front of the home and means the lounge and kitchen both overlook the garden, the preferred layout for many buyers.
The principal bedroom is a generous double and benefits from a window to the front elevation and a range of fitted wardrobes.
The second bedroom, is actually used as a versatile dining and work space for the current owner.
The bedroom also benefits from a built-in wardrobe/storage space and has a window to the front elevation.
The lounge is again another spacious duel aspect room with a window to the side elevation with windows to both side and rear elevations.
There is a fantastic living flame gas fire inset into the external wall creating a real focal point and a patio door that opens to a delightful conservatory where views of the garden can be enjoyed.
The conservatory runs across the back of the property and is actually split into two separate areas.
Firstly, there is a seating area directly behind the lounge and the other section is used as a utility space with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, with room left over for a small table and chairs.
The kitchen is again well proportioned and has been refitted to include a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink drainer with mixer tap.
There is an integral ceramic hob and built-in double oven as well as space for a fridge. There is a window to the rear elevation and a door that provides access to the garden.
The kitchen also accommodates a recently fitted 'Worcester' combination boiler.
Finally, there is a stunning refitted shower room comprising a contemporary three piece suite to include a large walk-in shower cubicle, low flush WC, and wash hand basin that sits on top of a fitted storage unit.
To the front of the home there is a neatly presented front garden that enhances the homes kerb appeal and a driveway that provides off-road parking as well as direct car access to the garage.
There is secure gated access to rear. At the rear is a wonderfully manicured garden with well stocked planted beds containing a variety of flora.
In addition, a paved patio seating area gives a space to entertain and relax and there is also a lawn.
The garden backs out to playing fields, meaning nothing overlooks the garden and creates a feeling of space.
This is genuinely a beautiful bungalow and much bigger that many of the competing bungalows on the estate. As well as the high standard of finish the home also enjoys full fibre broadband connection.
