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
Located to the south eastern fringe of Carlisle, with a pastoral outlook to the front and having easy access to the M6 and city centre, an excellent opportunity to acquire a well presented, detached, 4 bedroom family home, with flexible living space, enclosed garden with garage and parking to rear.
Built in 2018 and offered with the remainder of the NHBC warranty, Sewell Lane forms part of the highly regarded Speckledwood development, situated on the desirable southern rural fringe of the city.
This popular residential area is exceptionally well served by a wide range of local amenities, including sports facilities, recreational playing fields and parks.
The property falls within the catchment area for a number of sought-after nurseries, primary and secondary schools.
It also benefits from excellent transport links, with convenient access to the city centre, regular bus services throughout the city, and easy access to the M6 at Junction 42 and soon to be opened southern by-pass.
Presented in excellent neutral order throughout, the property is constructed in attractive local red sandstone and offers deceptively spacious family accommodation.
This appealing double-fronted home briefly comprises, to the ground floor, a central entrance hallway with a lounge and separate sitting room/dining room to the front elevation.
To the rear is a generous kitchen/dining room, complemented by an adjoining utility room and a ground floor WC.
To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, together with a well-appointed family bathroom.
Externally, the property benefits from an enclosed rear garden and a parking area with garage, accessed via a private lane with shared access and maintenance responsibilities.
Sure to attract strong interest, early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space and quality of accommodation on offer.
