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
An extended, 5-bedroom detached family home of over 2150 sq. Ft, in a peaceful, popular location, and less than 10 minutes from Cambridge.
This fabulous family home has extensive ground-floor accommodation with a wonderful open-plan feel, five bedrooms and two en-suites, so it is perfect for large families.
The main living area has been extended and altered to create an open-plan space, and there is a large brick fireplace with a woodburner, and a large window overlooking the front garden that creates a lovely light environment.
The dining area has doors to the rear garden and leads to the kitchen/breakfast area, which has been re-fitted with attractive timber-fronted units in a natural finish.
There are quartz work surfaces, an induction hob with down-draft extraction, an oven, dishwasher, and fridge freezer.
Sliding doors from the living area lead to the garden room extension, which has a corner window, roof lights and doors to the garden.
It is finished in natural timber and has wood flooring with underfloor heating. There is a study and family room, which offers flexible space for home working.
A utility room and cloakroom with WC, and a galleried entrance hall complete the ground floor.
Upstairs is equally spacious and well-planned with five good-sized bedrooms, which include a main room with a built-in storage cupboard, and a refitted ensuite bathroom with a freestanding bath, separate shower, basin, towel rail and WC.
The second bedroom also has a refitted en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath and a towel rail.
There are three further bedrooms, which are all an excellent size, and the family shower room has also been refitted.
The house has stylish finishes throughout, gas central heating, recent double glazing, and a burglar alarm. Outside, there is a cottage-style front garden which is well-stocked and mature.
There is a garage which has a door into the house and an EV charging point. Side access leads to the rear garden, which is mainly lawn and enclosed by fencing.
There is a patio adjoining the rear of the house and a timber decked seating area at the end of the garden. What3words: ///rationing.piston.tolls
