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 BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED, WARM AND WELCOMING FAMILY HOME IN A SEMI-RURAL SETTING.
SPACIOUS AND VERSATILE DOWNSTAIRS LIVING SPACE, FOUR GENEROUS BEDROOM, A GENEROUS GARDEN AND STUNNING VIEWS OVER THE FIELDS.
Our Agent Jodie Says: “I love the setting of this four-bedroom detached home on Watery Lane in Scropton.
It’s one of those locations that really does offer the best of both worlds – surrounded by open countryside, yet just a short drive from Hatton and Sudbury, where you’ll find great transport links and everyday amenities close at hand.
I like how the property is set back with a spacious driveway and garage, making it practical as well as attractive. Step inside and I think you’ll instantly feel how warm and inviting the house is.
The front living room is a lovely cosy space, with a log burner that’s perfect for the winter months and a large bay window that brings in plenty of natural light.
I love how double doors open through to the kitchen-dining space, which really is the heart of the home.
The modern kitchen looks out over the garden and includes a breakfast bar, and I like how there’s ample space for a large dining table – ideal for family life and entertaining.
There’s also a conservatory, which I think is perfect for the summer months, leading out to a covered seating area so the outdoor space can be enjoyed come rain or shine.
Outside, I like how the garden has been thoughtfully sectioned.
There’s a patio area for seating, a lawned area, a charming fish pond, and an archway that leads through to a useful storage area at the back.
Overall, I think this is a gorgeous family home in a semi-rural setting that’s hard to beat”. Our Sellers Thoughts: “ We hope you will love our house and beautiful garden as much as we have.
We have loved living here with its far reaching countryside views easy access to local transport links for the Peak District towns and major cities.
We have amazing neighbours and will miss the friendly and welcoming local community but it is time for us to move on to the next stage of our lives by the coast”.
