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
Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac on Lime Close, within the popular Poplars area of Stevenage, this well presented three-bedroom semi-detached home is an excellent opportunity for first time buyers looking for a property that’s ready to move into and grow with them.
Inside, the home offers a comfortable lounge, ideal for cosy evenings and relaxed family time.
The former garage has been thoughtfully converted into a separate dining room, providing a versatile space that works well for family meals, entertaining friends, or setting up a home office.
To the rear of the property is a spacious kitchen/diner, offering plenty of storage and worktop space along with room for a dining table - perfect for everyday life.
Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, giving flexibility for children’s rooms, a nursery, guest room, or workspace.
The bathroom has recently been refitted and is finished in a clean, modern style, ready to enjoy from day one.
The property has benefited from a number of recent improvements, including being repainted externally, the installation of new windows and doors, and a newly fitted combi boiler, all adding to the home’s appeal and providing peace of mind for new owners.
Outside, the rear garden offers a great space for children to play, summer barbecues, or relaxing outdoors.
To the front, the property benefits from a private driveway, making parking easy and convenient.
The Poplars is a popular and well-established area, particularly appealing to families and first-time buyers, thanks to its local schools, shops, green spaces, and nearby amenities.
Stevenage town centre and transport links are also easily accessible, making this a welcoming and practical home in a well-connected location - ideal for taking that first step onto the property ladder.
