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
Bowden Lane is such a brilliant spot in Marple. You can stroll to the train station, the primary school, and right into the centre of town in just a few minutes.
This is a home that will really suit someone who wants to make the most of that convenience, but also wants a great sized property with a layout that gives you options.
As you step through the porch, you’re welcomed into a lovely bright hallway. There’s a handy understairs cupboard for extra storage and a door leading into the main living space.
The living room is split into three distinct areas, which makes it feel really flexible. At the front, there’s a cosy sitting area with a beautiful bay window where the current owners have their sofa.
In the middle, there’s another living space that’s currently used as a reading and music area, but it could just as easily work as a playroom or snug.
Then you’ve got double doors opening into the dining room at the rear. This room is wonderfully bright, overlooking the garden, and there’s an archway that flows straight into the kitchen.
The kitchen itself is a great size, with plenty of room to work, and there’s a really useful breakfast room just off it, which nicely rounds off the ground floor.
Upstairs on the first floor, you’ll find two generous bedrooms and a stylish refitted bathroom. It’s contemporary in design and features a three-piece suite with a shower over the bath.
Where the original third bedroom once was, there’s now a secondary staircase leading up to the second floor. Just before the staircase, there’s also a space that would work perfectly as a study nook.
At the very top, the main bedroom takes over the entire floor. It comes with its own en suite and feels like a real retreat.
The current owners also use part of this space as a home working area for both of them, which just shows how versatile it is.
Whether you need a peaceful main bedroom, a workspace, or a bit of both, this top floor gives you plenty of flexibility. Outside, you’re really well set up here too.
At the front, there’s loads of space for parking, which is always a bonus, along with a neatly landscaped garden that gives the house a nice bit of privacy from the lane.
It feels tucked away while still being nice and open.
Down the side of the property, there’s a really useful storage area, perfect for bikes, bins, or all those bits you just don’t want cluttering up the house.
That then leads you through to the rear garden. It’s south facing, so you can enjoy the sun throughout the day, and it’s surrounded by evergreen bushes that keep it feeling private all year round.
It’s a lovely spot to relax, entertain, or just enjoy a bit of peace and quiet
