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
Nestled within the highly sought after Lodge Close in Chigwell positioned on a commanding plot, sits this four-bedroom detached family home offering an exceptional opportunity for buyers looking to place their own stamp on a property.
Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, the residence enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining conveniently close to Chigwell’s excellent amenities, schools, and transport links.
The home is generously proportioned throughout, featuring a bright and airy dual-aspect reception room, spacious kitchen, separate dining area, shower/WC and a welcoming entrance hall.
Upstairs, four well sized bedrooms provide ample accommodation for a growing family.
Although the property would benefit from some updating, it presents enormous potential for modernisation or extension (subject to the usual consents).
Externally, the home boasts a mature rear garden, private driveway, and a detached garage to the side.
This much loved family home is offered to the market for the first time in half a century, making it a truly unique prospect in one of Chigwell’s most desirable residential pockets. Await EPC
