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
The property is approached via a pillared gate and driveway on Tyning End, with newly laid limestone paving leading to the front porch and the side access.
The house has been sympathetically extended to the side and rear and it sits in an elevated plot which has easily manageable gardens to the front and rear.
The covered entrance porch leads to the welcoming entrance hall where stairs rise to the upper floor and the hall splits to the main reception rooms and into the new extension where there is the study or ground floor bedroom, stylish shower room and utility room with a door to the rear garden.
The bay-fronted sitting room is south facing and opens to the dining room and in turn the well-appointed kitchen.
The kitchen has been fully upgraded and boasts bi-fold doors leading to the rear terrace and garden. There is also a playroom which completes the ground floor.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a refitted family bathroom. Externally the gardens wrap around the house and are fully enclosed and secure.
Steps rise from the rear garden to the original garage which is now used as a home gym but could easily be a studio as it is very light.
The driveway and electric car charger are in front of the garage and has space for one car in addition to the residents parking scheme.
St Catherines is located between The Tyning and Tyning End, a highly sought after spot within Widcombe, renowned for its exceptional views over the adjacent countryside, city of Bath and beyond towards Bristol.

World class sporting facilities are available at nearby Bath Rugby and Cricket Clubs and at Bath University and there are excellent hotel, spa and gym facilities at The Gainsborough, The Priory, The Royal Crescent and Combe Grove Manor Hotels.
St Catherines is perfectly placed for easy access to a triangle of good state and independent schools which include Widcombe Infants School, King Edwards, Prior Park College and The Paragon School on Prior Park Road, along with Monkton Combe, Beechen Cliff and Ralph Allen Schools.
