It is 24' 9" fully extended without any gooseneck or brush attached.  Realistically with a gooseneck and brush, it is 26ft.  This should give you a reach of 31ft.

So small modern 4 storey work with level ground, just?

Yes, I did one today funnily enough.  You can just reach with a gooseneck attached.  Interestingly I clean a converted nunnery that is third storey and is actually 6" higher than the 4th storey window I did today.  I also do a stately home and it's second storey window is the same height as the low level fourth storey.

I have a 4 year old 3 storey house. I need a 31' mimimum from end of the pole to top of brush to reach the velux windows at the back of the house.
My house is a modern Persimmon house called 'cambridge'
