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
A charming bay-fronted semi-detached home, combining traditional character with contemporary living, three bedrooms and a generously proportioned rear garden.
Set along an established residential road within easy reach of Leicester city centre, this attractive home offers approximately 850 sq ft of thoughtfully arranged accommodation, with a balance of period charm and everyday practicality.
Behind its handsome red-brick façade, the property retains a number of characterful details, including traditional bay windows, decorative stained glass and painted timber panelling.
The entrance porch opens into a welcoming hallway, leading through to an inviting sitting room at the front of the house.
A generous bay window draws natural light into the space, while a feature fireplace provides an attractive focal point, creating a comfortable setting for relaxation.
To the rear, the kitchen and dining room forms the heart of the home.
Extending to approximately 18 feet, this sociable space features contemporary wood-effect cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and a range-style cooker.
There is ample room for a family dining table, while glazed French doors provide a natural connection to the garden, making the space equally suited to everyday family life and informal entertaining.
Upstairs, the accommodation comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a particularly spacious principal bedroom with an attractive bay window.
A third, more compact bedroom offers flexibility as a nursery, dressing room or dedicated home office. A family bathroom, fitted with a bath and overhead shower, completes the first floor.
The Garden Outside, the property enjoys an enclosed rear garden, thoughtfully arranged between a generous paved terrace and an area of lawn.
The terrace provides an inviting setting for outdoor dining and summer gatherings, while the lawn offers valuable space for recreation and family life.
Dark timber fencing provides a sense of enclosure, complemented by established trees beyond the garden boundaries. A useful timber storage shed adds further practicality.
The Setting Colwell Road occupies a convenient residential position to the north-west of Leicester city centre, close to Anstey Lane and Groby Road.
