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.

A superb open-plan reception room adjoins the kitchen/breakfast room which slightly elevated within the design.
Across the glazed hall there is a principal bedroom with ensuite facilities, together with a second bedroom, a third bedroom/study and a shower room.
There is also a utility room, coat/boot room and cloakroom to this floor.
To the lower ground/basement level there is a generous open plan reception/games room with a gym with cloakroom, a guest suite with en suite facilities, store and plant rooms.
Externally, the designs present a carefully considered composition of stone, timber and traditional roofing materials, resulting in a timeless home whose natural palette and understated character sit comfortably within its surroundings.
