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.

DESCRIPTION This is a splendid property set within an extremely generous plot measuring approximately one acre.
Upon entering the house you are greeted by an impressive entrance hall, with a central oak staircase that rises from the oak floor to a gallery landing which sets the tone of sophisticated scale on display here.
