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 £725,000 - £750,000** Nestled on an impressive corner plot of just under a third of an acre in the highly sought-after Manor Rise cul-de-sac, this deceptively spacious chalet-style property features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it an ideal family home in the heart of Bearsted village.
The residence has been meticulously maintained and offers considerable potential for further expansion and modernisation.
Upon arrival, you are greeted by a private driveway that runs alongside a charming walled and tree-lined front garden.
Step inside and find an inviting entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway, which connects to two sizable bedrooms at the front of the property and a family bathroom.
To the rear, an expansive sitting room offers picturesque views of the beautifully established rear garden, complemented by a formal dining room and a kitchen with a convenient adjacent utility room and downstairs W.C..
Venturing upstairs, the landing unveils a spacious third bedroom and a fourth bedroom, both with delightful views over the rear garden, which benefit from the use of a generous bathroom.
Externally, the driveway leads to a substantial double tandem garage, providing ample covered parking for two vehicles, or an excellent space for additional storage.
The magnificent south-east facing rear garden boasts a vast lawn, mature borders, summerhouse, patio seating areas, and backs onto the Girl Guides hut, part of the Woodland Trust, ensuring both privacy and tranquillity.
Tenure: Freehold. Council Tax Band: F. EPC: E. Location - Located in the heart of Bearsted, this property is ideally positioned to take full advantage of all the local amenities.
