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
A handsome and beautifully presented six-bedroom Victorian detached family home, set within approximately 6.6 acres of gardens and grounds, enjoying far-reaching, unspoilt panoramic views across surrounding countryside within this highly prized Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
In addition to its appeal as a family home, this enchanting country house offers a rare opportunity to continue a well-established and highly rated Airbnb and holiday letting business.
The grounds include a dedicated decked glamping area with separate bathroom facilities, along with additional permitted glamping pitches capable of accommodating up to five large tents, generating strong seasonal income.
Description And Location The property offers spacious and well-balanced accommodation, retaining a wealth of attractive period features.
The ground floor comprises an entrance vestibule, reception hall, drawing room, sitting room, dining room, snug, playroom, kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory, utility room, cloakroom, rear hall and cellar.
On the first floor is a generous principal suite with bedroom and shower room, a guest suite with dressing area and shower room, four further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
A substantial attic provides excellent potential for conversion into additional accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.
This stylish family home is particularly distinguished by its exceptional outdoor offering.
The gardens and paddocks extend to approximately 6.6 acres and include a stable block with four loose boxes, tack room and hay store, all with direct access to a quiet lane-ideal for equestrian use.
A substantial ménage further enhances the appeal for riders.
The grounds also feature extensive outbuildings including a double open garage with storage above, an additional double garage and workshop, a large motor barn, agricultural hay barn, greenhouse, potting shed, raised vegetable beds, formal lawns, natural planting and a pond.
A standout feature is the impressive swimming pool area, set on a raised terrace to fully appreciate the outstanding views across the valley.
This is complemented by a well-equipped pool house and pump house, both fully serviced with mains electricity, water, drainage and WiFi, providing kitchen and washroom facilities.
The pool is heated via an air source heat pump, supported by the property’s extensive solar power system.
The property benefits from a significant renewable energy installation, with solar panels generating over 20kW, alongside a recently installed battery storage system of approximately 40kW.
Three-phase power with smart metering was installed in 2018, offering both efficiency and income through fit payments.
Further supporting this income potential is a former outbuilding now converted into a shower block with two showers, WCs and external kitchen facilities serving the glamping areas.
There is also planning permission in place to replace a former outbuilding (approx.
1,280 sq ft) with ancillary accommodation, offering further scope for holiday lets or guest accommodation, subject to the usual consents.
Overall, this delightful property represents a rare combination of a substantial period home, equestrian facilities, lifestyle amenities and proven income potential, all set within a peaceful and highly desirable rural setting.
