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
Situated within the highly sought-after West End of Lincoln, this substantial four-bedroom property offers spacious and versatile accommodation together with excellent potential for a variety of purchasers.
Currently vacant and offered with no onward chain, the property is equally suited to an owner-occupier looking for a generous family home or an investor seeking a property with established HMO potential.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises a private entrance passage, entrance hallway, spacious bay-fronted lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, utility area and ground floor shower room.
To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms and a further shower room.
The generous proportions and flexible layout make this an appealing family home, with plenty of space for bedrooms, home working and entertaining.
The separate reception rooms and good-sized kitchen provide practical living accommodation, while the enclosed rear garden offers valuable outside space.
For investors, the property also presents an exciting opportunity.
Previously operated as a four-bedroom HMO, the existing layout offers scope to potentially reconfigure the accommodation to create five bedrooms and five en-suites, subject to the necessary planning, licensing and building regulations consents.
This provides flexibility for a purchaser looking to retain the property as an HMO and maximise its future rental potential. The property's location is another major attraction.
West Parade is particularly popular with students and is conveniently positioned for the University of Lincoln, Lincoln city centre and a wide range of shops, amenities, restaurants and transport links.
At the same time, the established residential surroundings and substantial accommodation make the property equally appealing to families looking for a home within easy reach of the city.
Offered to the market vacant, this is a genuinely versatile property with the potential to suit both owner-occupiers and investors alike. EPC Rating: D
