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 a sought-after position at the foot of Marford Hill, Ivy Cottage is a deceptively spacious detached home offering versatile accommodation, generous room proportions and excellent potential for a new owner to make it their own.
Surrounded by established homes in one of the area's most desirable locations, the property combines a peaceful setting with easy access to Chester, local amenities and highly regarded schools.
Set back behind a substantial lawned frontage and approached via a gravel driveway, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy whilst providing ample off-road parking and access to a large double garage.
The attractive rendered exterior and character-inspired design ensure the home sits comfortably amongst the older properties that define this popular part of Marford.
The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the accommodation beyond, which is both spacious and highly adaptable.
At the heart of the home is a superb dual-aspect living room, enjoying views over both the front and rear gardens and centred around an attractive open fireplace.
French doors open onto the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Complementing the main living space are two further reception rooms, offering excellent flexibility for modern family life.
Whether utilised as a formal dining room, family room, playroom, home office or additional sitting room, these spaces can easily adapt to suit a variety of lifestyles.
The kitchen is well-appointed with an extensive range of fitted units, granite work surfaces and a breakfast bar, alongside integrated appliances including a Bosch oven, gas hob, dishwasher and fridge freezer.
A generous utility room with cloakroom/WC provides valuable additional storage and practicality.
To the first floor are four bedrooms, each enjoying pleasant outlooks over the surrounding gardens and neighbouring greenery.
The principal and rear-facing bedrooms benefit from views towards open fields beyond the garden, whilst the remaining bedrooms enjoy attractive aspects across Marford Hill and the mature surroundings.
The family bathroom is immaculately presented with a modern white suite and contemporary finishes.
Outside, the rear garden offers a high degree of privacy and provides a blank canvas for landscaping and outdoor entertaining.
Predominantly laid to lawn with a patio seating area, it enjoys a peaceful setting with open fields beyond and ample space for families, gardeners or those simply looking to enjoy the outdoors.
Offered for sale with no onward chain, Ivy Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached home in a highly regarded village location.
Ready to move straight into whilst still offering scope to personalise over time, it is a property that will appeal to a wide range of buyers seeking space, flexibility and a wonderful setting.
