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
Occupying an enviably large plot of approximately 0.39 acres in a stunningly beautiful location at the foot of the North Downs, is this incredibly spacious and well presented three bedroom detached bungalow.
With an abundance of large windows in every room, offering spectacular views across the neighbouring countryside, the property is positively bathed in natural light throughout. Tenure: Freehold.
Council Tax Band: F. EPC Rating: To be confirmed.
Summary - As you approach the property, you are greeted by an impressively long driveway that runs alongside a beautifully maintained lawned front garden, offering stunning views across the neighbouring farmland.
Upon entering the property through the welcoming porch overhang, you step into a spacious entrance hall that seamlessly leads you into the living accommodation.
The modern kitchen/breakfast room is a spacious and beautifully appointed area featuring fitted oak units, integrated appliances, and elegant granite work surfaces.
The lounge is generously sized yet retains a cosy atmosphere, enhanced by a working log burner and a large picture window that frames the lovely mature garden and breath-taking views beyond.
From the lounge, bi-fold doors open directly onto an Indian sandstone wrap-around patio, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
A second door from the lounge leads into the fabulous sunroom, currently used as a dining room.
This room also benefits from its own set of bi-fold doors leading to the patio and garden, along with under-floor heating for comfort year-round.
The principal bedroom is both spacious and bright, equipped with fitted wardrobes for ample storage, and it features a recently modernised en-suite bathroom and French doors opening onto the patio.
Bedrooms two and three are also generously proportioned, both benefitting from fitted wardrobes and each enjoying the luxury of their own set of patio doors.
Outside, a large driveway accommodates multiple vehicles, complemented by a substantial garage/workshop that offers potential for conversion into an annex (subject to the usual planning consents).
The property is eco-friendly, boasting several solar panels that help keep energy costs surprisingly low for a home of this size.
The stunning South facing rear garden boasts a large pond and expansive lawn, perfect for entertaining family and friends.
