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
Red Farm House is an attractive period farmhouse, believed to date from the early 1800s.
Unlisted and extensively renovated to a high standard by the current owners, the property has been thoughtfully extended whilst combining period charm with well-balanced modern living.
A thoughtfully designed extension creates a further generous sitting room on the ground floor and a well-appointed principal bedroom suite above.
In addition, the house has benefited from the installation of new windows throughout, together with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, including the entrance hall and kitchen/dining room.
Renovations also include the addition of a detached garage with a studio above.
The accommodation is light, spacious and beautifully presented throughout, with exposed beams providing a sense of character and continuity.
A generous reception hall sits at the centre of the house, leading to the main reception rooms.
The well-appointed drawing room enjoys views over the gardens and features a striking fireplace, characterful exposed beams and double doors opening onto the terrace, perfect for summer entertaining.
At the heart of the home lies the kitchen/dining room, a well-proportioned and sociable space centred around a large island, with direct access to the terrace, ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining.
An adjoining snug offers flexibility as a home office or playroom. A further generously proportioned sitting room, created as part of the extension, provides excellent additional reception space.
Practical additions to the ground floor also include a boot room, laundry room, WC and plant/boiler room. A galleried staircase leads to the first-floor landing.
There is a generous principal suite with a floor-to-ceiling window, enjoying garden views and an abundance of natural light, along with a large dressing room and adjoining bathroom.
The first floor further offers four generously proportioned double bedrooms. One of which benefits from a balcony with garden view, a dressing area and en suite.
The remaining three bedrooms are well served by a family bathroom.
The property further benefits from a detached garage building with a first floor studio and shower room, offering flexible accommodation suitable for guest use or as an office.
In addition, there are two separate, modern office units set away from the main house, an ideal solution for home working while remaining distinct from the property.
The gardens and grounds wrap around the house and are laid predominantly to lawn, complemented by mixed borders and mature ornamental trees. A generous paved terrace extends along the rear elevation.
The space is ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, enjoying an open outlook across the gardens and surrounding countryside. The grounds are further enhanced by a tennis court.
