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
Tucked away on a quiet road in Bishopston is this charming two double bedroom mid-terraced Victorian home.
The property retains many period features whilst benefitting a contemporary finish, a south facing rear garden and rooftop views across Bishopston.
Accommodation comprises: Main entrance which leads into the hallway with a stripped wooden floor.
Doors from the hall lead into two linked reception rooms that create a light and airy open plan living space.
Towards the front of the house is a formal living room with the bay, double glazed sash style windows, plantation shutters, stripped wood floors, fireplace with a wood burning stove, period cornice and picture rail.
An opening leads onto the second reception, currently occupied as a dining area, with stripped wood floors and a double glazed window which looks out onto the side garden.
At the rear of the property is the kitchen and a separate utility room.
The kitchen is complete with a range of fitted wall and base units with contrasting work surface, metro tiled splash back and stainless steel fittings.
A side door from the kitchen provides access to the rear garden. Beyond the kitchen a useful utility room holds the washing appliances, further sink with storage underneath and a W/C.
On the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The master bedroom is positioned at the front and spans the full width of the property, with a lovely outlook onto Melbourne Road.
Additional features include sash style double-glazed windows, plantation shutters, stripped wood floors and picture rail.
The second bedroom next door is adjacent, equally well-proportioned and has an open aspect overlooking the rear garden. Finally, a larger than average bathroom is located at the rear of the property.
This is an uplifting, stylish room with a free standing bath, enclosed shower cubicle, period white suite, stripped wooden floor and chrome fittings.
Outside there is an attractive Victorian brick facade with a solid wood front door and low maintenance front garden. At the rear the elevated sunny south facing garden is a key feature of the house.
This space is really well presented and has been divided into patio and lawned sections, with flower beds and established bushes and feels open, green and is not overlooked.
26 Melbourne Road is full of charm and character, is within APR for Bishop Road primary and Redland Green secondary schools, whilst being within easy reach of all the amenities on the Gloucester Road.
