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
We are delighted to offer this stunning Grade II listed three-bedroom thatched cottage, beautifully renovated by the current owners and ready to move straight into.
Ideal for families or downsizers, this charming home combines character features with modern comfort throughout.
Upon entry, you are welcomed by an enclosed porch leading into a thoughtfully arranged ground floor.
To the right is a bright dual-aspect living room with an open fireplace, while to the left is a generously sized dining room, also dual aspect, offering ample space for entertaining.
To the rear, accessed from the dining room, is the kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units, ample work surfaces, an inset ceramic sink and a small adjoining utility area.
The ground floor also benefits from a family bathroom comprising a full-sized bath, WC and wash hand basin, along with stairs rising to the first floor.
Upstairs, the property offers three double bedrooms, all full of character with exposed beams and unique rooflines.
The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and benefits from built-in wardrobes and a large en-suite shower room with an oversized walk-in shower, WC and wash hand basin.
Bedroom two is also a generous double with built-in storage, while the third bedroom is a good-sized room ideal for guests, a home office or additional bedroom space.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, a large driveway provides ample off-road parking and is bordered by mature planting.
The recently re-thatched roof has been completed to a high standard, offering peace of mind for the new owner.
The driveway extends to the side, leading to a garage and providing access to the spacious rear garden.
The garden features a paved patio, a semi-enclosed garden room, and an additional seating area to the rear, offering multiple spots to enjoy the sun throughout the day.
The lawn is beautifully maintained and bordered by mature trees and planting, creating a private and tranquil setting.
Early viewing is highly recommended, as properties of this quality and character are rarely available at this price point.
