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 on a pleasant small development in Lower Stondon, this well-presented four-bedroom semi-detached family home offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors.
The property has been thoughtfully updated and reconfigured by the owner, creating a modern and practical home that works particularly well for family living.
A particular feature of the property is its position backing onto the allotments, while established planting to the rear provides privacy and helps create a pleasant sense of space.
The ground floor is centred around the open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, creating a bright and sociable heart to the home.
The modern kitchen has been updated by the current owners and benefits from integrated appliances, while the generous layout provides plenty of room for both dining and comfortable family seating.
The bay window to the front brings natural light into the room, while at the rear, bi-fold doors open directly onto the decking and garden, creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
During the warmer months, the doors can be opened up to create an excellent space for entertaining or simply enjoying the garden from the main living area.
The ground floor also benefits from underfloor heating, providing additional comfort throughout the main living space.
The entrance hall provides access to the main living space and also includes a convenient WC and useful storage, with space for a washing machine, adding to the practicality of the ground floor.
The first floor provides three bedrooms, including two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from fitted wardrobes.
The third bedroom offers flexibility and could work equally well as a child's bedroom, guest room or home office. The floor is completed by a family bathroom, as well as additional storage.
The principal bedroom occupies the second floor, providing excellent privacy from the other bedrooms.
It is a spacious room with fitted storage and benefits from its own en-suite shower room, making this a comfortable and private main bedroom suite.
Outside, the property benefits from a low-maintenance rear garden incorporating decking, providing a good space for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining.
Established planting has been added to provide privacy, while the garden's position backing onto the allotments creates a pleasant sense of openness and separation from neighbouring properties.
The bi-fold doors make this space feel like a natural extension of the main living area. To the front and side, the property benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking.
The original garage has been incorporated into the garden following the repositioning of the boundary fence, providing a useful additional area with potential for storage, hobbies or other uses.
The three-storey layout gives the property a particularly practical feel, with the main living accommodation occupying the ground floor, three bedrooms and the family bathroom on the first floor, and the principal bedroom suite taking up the top floor.
This arrangement provides a good degree of separation between the living and sleeping accommodation and works particularly well for family life, while also giving older children or guests their own space.
