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
Tucked away in a wonderfully private setting, this truly individual home is approached through wrought-iron gates with parking both in front of and within the driveway.
From here, a gently winding stone path leads through the south facing garden which is particularly peaceful, with shady trees, various seating areas and a pergola-covered terrace providing delightful spots to relax or entertain.
Step Inside Stepping inside, a welcoming central hallway sets the tone for the home, with a convenient cloakroom, a storage cupboard and a well-positioned boot room ensuring everyday life remains effortlessly organised.
From here, the house unfolds naturally.
To one side lies the impressive kitchen and main living space, very much the heart of the home, while across the hallway a striking double-height reception room, currently arranged as a gym, forming a dramatic and versatile second wing.
The kitchen/dining room is a particularly impressive space, where dramatic vaulted ceilings and Velux windows flood the room with natural light.
Oak flooring, a striking glass-screened staircase and French doors opening to the terrace combine to create a wonderful setting for both everyday living and entertaining.
An open staircase rises from here to a mezzanine study area which connects to three of the four first-floor bedrooms.
The kitchen itself is both stylish and practical, with quartz stone work surfaces, a generous breakfast bar and integrated appliances.
Beyond, a well-planned utility room provides excellent practical space and cleverly links both wings of the house, ensuring the layout flows easily while also offering flexibility should a self-contained annexe ever be desired.
The main sitting room is a wonderfully inviting space, centred around an Inglenook fireplace housing a cosy wood-burning stove along side French Doors which lead to the garden.
Warm and inviting this charming room is the perfect place to relax or gather with friends and family. Glazed double doors connect through to a second reception room, currently arranged as a playroom.
With oak flooring and generous proportions, it would equally serve beautifully as a library, study or a more formal dining room, offering flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles.
Across the hallway, the second wing of the house reveals a dramatic double-height space currently used as a gym, where vaulted ceilings and Velux windows draw in an abundance of natural light.
French Doors open directly onto the pergola-covered terrace, creating an ideal space for entertaining or relaxing after a workout.
This wing also enjoys its own spiral staircase rising to a peaceful mezzanine sitting area leading to an en suite guest bedroom which offers an excellent arrangement for visiting family, independent living or the creation of a self-contained annexe if desired.
And So To Bed.......... Ascending the principal staircase and moving along the landing, the period features continue with exposed stone walls and charming roof timbers.
The principal suite provides a calm and comfortable retreat, complete with a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden and a stylish en suite shower room.
Two further bedrooms are served by a charming family bathroom featuring a roll-top bath, creating a wonderfully relaxing space to unwind at the end of the day.
