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
A rare opportunity to purchase this (Grade II) listed and historic Flintstone Cottage.
Set in the picturesque village of Fittleworth, within the South Downs National Park, this property has been modernised, but with all is original features preserved.
Used as a second home, the property is available immediately and chain free. Set over three floors and extended to the rear, the cottage is larger and more versatile than most examples of this style.
The lower ground vault / store has been used as a games room by the current owners, but could easily be converted into a gym or artist studio.
On the raised ground floor, the quaint and original entrance hall provides access to a WC and to a split reception area, with dining and lounge spaces separated by glazed double doors.
To the rear of the property, a former store has been tastefully converted (2006) into a kitchen extension, with conservation Velux windows providing lots of natural light.
From the lounge area, the traditional stairs lead up to the first floor landing, with access to both bedrooms and a full bathroom with WC.
All rooms have the original windows and doors, with beamed ceilings throughout. There is also a generous loft space with further potential (STPP).
Outside, the property enjoys a small paved area alongside the entrance and kitchen, with steps and shared pathway leading up to the large private garden laid to lawn.
The property has been enjoyed by the sellers as a second home for the past 15 years.
Having now moved permanently to a new home nearby, the property is available for a new owner to enjoy and put their own stamp on this historic gem.
