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
Steeped in history and enjoying one of Braunton’s most enviable positions, Cobblestones is an exceptional Grade II listed home offering charm, character, and panoramic views stretching towards the coast.
Dating back to 1905, this unique property is set within an expansive plot, approached via a sweeping driveway with a turning circle that immediately sets the tone for this impressive residence.
Arranged across three levels, Cobblestones provides accommodation to suit all formalities, including an impressive open galleried dining room and period fireplaces to most floors.
Each room brims with character, with high ceilings and original details offering a wealth of charm.
There is excellent scope to incorporate a self-contained annexe if desired using the side outbuilding and bedroom, as well as to create further bedrooms and bathrooms on the generous second floor, allowing the home to evolve with its next custodians.
The gardens are a particular feature, beautifully enclosed by stone walls and filled with mature trees, shrubs, and courtyarded areas that create a sense of peace and privacy.
A range of useful outbuildings and a double-width garage add practicality and versatility, perfect for hobbies, storage, or further development (subject to consents).
Its elevated position commands far-reaching vistas over Braunton village, the estuary, and towards the sea beyond - a truly remarkable backdrop that changes beautifully with the seasons.
Cobblestones represents a rare opportunity to acquire a significant piece of Braunton’s heritage, combining space, character, and boundless potential to craft a truly remarkable family home.
