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
An individual residence positioned centrally in the sought after village of Aldborough overlooking the Village Green, with superb leisure facilities including swimming pool, sauna, gym and annexe.

The property is located on the edge of the green in the centre of the Roman Village of Aldborough and offers diverse accommodation and has superb leisure facilities which is not evident from the exterior.
The house which is Tardis-like in its appearance has been upgraded by the current owners to offer fantastic 5-bedroom living space which seamlessly blends the old with the new.
The replacement kitchen is delightful, and the updated bathrooms would not look out of place in a high-end spa hotel.
The owners have also carried out other works such as replacing the roof on the pool and landscaping in the garden.
The property would suit a range of purchasers from families to those wanting to work from home or alternatively have an income stream from the annexe as an Air BNB with the use of amazing leisure facilities.
