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
Colbury Cottage is one of those homes that just feels right the moment you arrive. Gordon Barker are delighted to market this three-bedroom character cottage in Hillsteet, FOR SALE.
On the ground floor, this 19th Century character cottage has two generous reception rooms, a kitchen and separate utility with WC.
A later addition, a large conservatory/ sun room gives you a third entertaining space with views over the gardens.
Upstairs are three proper double bedrooms, alongside a well-proportioned family bathroom. The master benefits from a large en-suite bathroom.
Everything feels light, comfortable and ready to update with its next owner.
There's off-road parking for multiple vehicles in addition to the double garage, and the large garden has a variety of plantings, which change beautifully with the seasons.
Location-wise, it's extremely convenient. The M27 is easily accessible, while Romsey, Southampton and Ringwood/BCP are all within an easy drive.
The open expanse of the New Forest is close by, and there are wonderful walks nearby - particularly around Testwood Lakes, which is always a favourite.
A home with presence, practicality and potential in equal measure.
