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.

A timber shed provides useful storage or workshop space, while external power points and an outside tap further enhance the practicality of the garden.
The south-easterly aspect allows the garden to enjoy sunlight throughout much of the day.
The property enjoys a central village location with a comprehensive range of amenities close by, including independent shops, cafes, restaurants, public houses, supermarkets, a post office, beauty salons and everyday services.
