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
**GUIDE PRICE £300,000 - £325,000** Situated within the sought-after Stanway area, just west of Colchester, is this three bedroom semi-detached house.
The location offers excellent access to local amenities, including highly regarded schools such as Stanway Secondary School, convenient transport links via the A12, and shopping at both Tollgate and Stane Retail Parks.
Internally, the accommodation is well-presented and briefly comprises an entrance hall, a lounge with feature fireplace, a separate dining room with sliding patio doors opening onto the rear garden, and a kitchen.
On the first floor, there are three bedrooms and a modern family bathroom. Externally, the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a patio area and well-stocked plant and shrub borders.
To the front of the property, a driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a single garage. Palmer & Partners would recommend an early internal viewing to avoid disappointment.
