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.

Inside, a welcoming hallway opens into a bright bay fronted living room with a feature fireplace and a comfortable family setting.
Beyond this lies a formal dining room and a separate breakfast area leading into the extended kitchen, fitted with modern cabinetry and work surfaces for both practicality and style.
A ground floor cloakroom is positioned just off the hall.
