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.

Description Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by an inviting entrance hall with stairs rising to the upper floors and descending to the garden level.
To the left is the fourth bedroom, a versatile space that could equally serve as a home office, playroom or snug, depending on your requirements.
To the rear of the ground floor is the impressive living room, where a beautiful bay window frames breathtaking views across Bath city centre and beyond.
This elegant reception room is generously proportioned and rich in period character, creating a wonderful space in which to relax and entertain.
The garden level is home to a bright and spacious kitchen/dining room, with direct access to the first of the property's two delightful gardens.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with a stylish range of wall and base units, a breakfast bar, gas hob and electric oven, providing both practicality and modern appeal.
This floor also benefits from a well-appointed three-piece family bathroom and a useful utility area.
Arranged across the first and second floors are three generous double bedrooms, all featuring built-in wardrobes, along with a contemporary shower room.
The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, boasting excellent proportions and a striking bay window that fills the room with natural light while once again showcasing the outstanding far-reaching views.
Externally, the rear of the property offers a beautifully maintained, established garden enclosed by fencing, with plenty of space for outdoor seating and entertaining during the warmer months.
A gate leads through to a second enclosed 'secret' garden, thoughtfully landscaped to create a peaceful and private retreat.
This charming space features a lawn, attractively planted flower beds and borders, and is complemented by a summer house with a patio area to the front-perfect for barbecues, al fresco dining, or simply enjoying the tranquil surroundings.
