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
Offered for sale with no onward chain, this charming three-bedroom semi-chalet-style bungalow on Heybridge Road is on the market for the first time since 1963.
Conveniently located, the property benefits from a nearby local convenience shop, while Ingatestone’s mainline station and High Street are just a 20-minute walk away (Source: Google Maps).
Upon entering, a central hallway leads to a well-proportioned ground-floor double bedroom on the right, followed by the family bathroom, which features a P-shaped bath with an overhead shower, a toilet, and a sink vanity unit.
The kitchen boasts a classic dark wood shaker-style design with ample storage space.
The spacious lounge is bathed in natural light, thanks to sliding patio doors that provide picturesque views of the garden.
Adjacent to the lounge, the dining room is accessible via internal bi-fold doors, offering the flexibility to keep the spaces separate or open-plan.
A staircase from the dining area leads to the first floor, where two further bedrooms are located—both with built-in storage.
The larger of the two benefits from an extensive range of fitted wardrobes. The well-proportioned, south-facing garden is a true sun trap, perfect for relaxation and outdoor enjoyment.
A single detached garage provides additional storage, accessed via a shared driveway.
The front garden adds to the curb appeal, with many neighbouring properties having converted similar spaces into private driveways.
