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
An exceptional, virtually new detached family home offering just under 3,000 sq ft of beautifully finished accommodation, created by a professional builder to an outstanding specification throughout.
An exceptional, virtually new individual detached family home offering just under 3,000 sq ft of first-class accommodation, finished to an outstanding specification throughout.
Originally a bungalow, the current owner – a professional builder – has extensively remodelled, extended and virtually rebuilt the property, retaining only a small portion of the original structure to create this impressive contemporary home.
The quality of workmanship and attention to detail must be seen to be fully appreciated.
Upon entering the property, you are immediately struck by the impressive full-height vaulted ceiling and galleried first-floor landing overlooking the spacious reception hall.
Large windows and skylights flood the entrance with natural light, while the stylish flooring benefits from underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, powered by an efficient air-source heat pump with zoned control.
Double doors lead into the stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, undoubtedly the heart of the home.
The contemporary kitchen features a large central island, high-quality fitted appliances, and sleek modern units, complemented by a separate utility room.
Wide bi-fold doors open fully onto the south-facing rear garden, creating an ideal space for entertaining and family living.
A door from the family area leads into a formal living room/snug, a perfect space to relax in the evenings, featuring a contemporary living-flame fireplace set within a bespoke media wall with built-in storage, and a large window overlooking the rear garden.
The ground floor also offers two generous double bedrooms, both with luxurious en-suite shower rooms, together with a further bedroom/reception room currently used as a study, and a beautifully appointed family bathroom.
Upstairs, the spacious landing is again filled with natural light.
Double doors open into the impressive principal bedroom, which enjoys a dual aspect and is fitted with bespoke built-in wardrobes and storage.
There are two further double bedrooms on this floor, served by a stylish and indulgent shower room.
Externally, the front of the property is enclosed by an attractive brick wall with remote-controlled entrance gates leading to a block-paved driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles.
The south-facing rear garden is a particular feature, with a large porcelain-tiled patio and sun terrace adjoining the rear of the house, leading onto a well-maintained lawn.
The garden also includes a superb detached annexe/studio and an outdoor barbecue kitchen area, making it ideal for entertaining.
The rear enjoys a pleasant wooded backdrop and, being south-facing, benefits from a high degree of sunshine throughout the day.
The property is conveniently located within easy level walking distance of Ferndown town centre, making it ideally positioned for local shops, amenities and transport links.
This is a truly unique home, finished to an exceptional standard, and offers a rare opportunity to acquire what will undoubtedly be someone’s dream property.
