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.

Quietly positioned and enjoying a pleasant outlook, the property offers flexible single-level living with scope for modernisation, making it ideal for downsizers, families or buyers seeking to personalise a home in a sought-after location.
The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan lounge and dining room, a generous and welcoming space.

From here, there is excellent flow through the home, enhancing the sense of space and comfort.
The kitchen offers ample storage and worktop space, with room for casual dining and direct access through to the conservatory.
