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
Christopher’s South Hams are delighted to market this charming mid terraced period cottage on the fringes of the popular Plympton St Maurice and walkable to the superb amenities of The Ridgeway.
Description - Welcoming you inside from the linear entrance hall is the incredibly light and bright sitting room dominated by its triple aspect, feature bay window.
The dining room sits at the heart of the home, acting as a social hub and thoroughfare with double doors that invite you outside and douse the room in natural light.
The well-appointed kitchen flows off the dining room at the rear of the property and a cloakroom completes the downstairs accommodation.
Stairs lead from the entrance hall to the first floor where there are two incredibly spacious double bedrooms.
The master bedroom is a mirror image of the sitting room below and is again flooded with natural light from its fantastic bay window.
The family bathroom is particularly lavish in size and boasts both roll-top bath and superb separate shower.
Outside a communal pathway runs across the rear of the terrace providing access and just across the path is your private garden, enclosed by fencing and primarily laid to lawn with areas of patio and decking.
This is a terrific property and a blank canvas on which to create your own special home.
Key Features - Period Terraced Cottage 2 Reception Rooms Downstairs Cloakroom 2 Large Double Bedrooms Large Family Bathroom Garden Permit Parking No Onward Chain Situation & Amenities - Richly steeped in history, the old stannary town of Plympton is sited on an ancient trackway called ‘the Ridgeway’ from Dartmoor with its earliest surviving documentary reference coming from and Anglo-Saxon charter reading ‘Plymentun’ deriving from the adjective plymen meaning ‘growing with plum-trees’, or ‘Plum-tree farm’.
Alternative derivations suggest a possible relationship to the Latin plombum which means ‘tin’ and may be a nod to the town’s history as an important trading centre for locally mined tin.
Today, Plympton sits in the shadow of the now ruined Norman motte-and-bailey castle that still dominates the landscape.
The town in general retains its medieval street pattern and together with a number of historic buildings, variety of architecture as well as the nearby Iron Age hill fort of Boringdon Camp, there are details all around to attest to the town’s varying past.
Plympton now offers a bustling hub with a wealth of amenities including retail, primary and secondary schools, healthcare services, leisure facilities, sports clubs, pubs and cafes and places of worship which altogether manages to preserve a village feel for this ever-developing town.
Excellent transport links give access to the larger surrounding towns and vibrant waterfront city of Plymouth. Services - All Mains Services Connected.
