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
Summary A beautifully positioned three-bedroom family home boasting an exceptional mature and large rear garden, driveway parking and tremendous potential for modernisation throughout and enlargement, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Description The property offers well-proportioned accommodation and is ideally located within walking distance of the town centre and station, while also being conveniently placed for a number of highly regarded local schools.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway leading into a comfortable sitting room, along with a further reception room, ideal for use as a dining room, study or playroom.
The ground floor is completed by a fitted kitchen, plus a store/utility room with it's own access to the front of the property.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, a recently finished family bathroom and a separate WC.
Outside, the property benefits from driveway parking to the front, while to the rear lies what is undoubtedly the home's outstanding feature.
The large garden is exceptionally mature and beautifully established, with an abundance of colourful flowers, mature trees, shrubs and planting creating a wonderfully private and tranquil setting.
For purchasers looking to create a long-term family home, the property also offers significant scope for extension, with potential to enlarge to the side and rear as well as convert the loft, all subject to the necessary planning permissions.
