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
Two bedrooms. One beautiful barn conversion. Views that deserve their own postcode.
Welcome to 4 Brockton House Barns, a charming two-bedroom barn conversion tucked away in Brockton, on the outskirts of Eccleshall.
With its wonderfully unique layout, practical spaces and gorgeous surrounding countryside views, this is a home that proves you don't need acres of floor space to make a big impression.
Packed with character from top to bottom, the property combines exposed beams, timber accents and traditional doors with the modern conveniences needed for everyday living.
Step through the front door and you're greeted straight into the kitchen, where country charm meets practical design.
Tiled flooring provides a hard-working foundation, while traditional cabinetry and complementary granite worktops give the space plenty of timeless appeal.
There's a generous selection of integrated appliances, including a Smeg cooker, alongside a one-and-a-half bowl sink positioned beneath the window.
And that positioning isn't just practical, it comes with a rather lovely perk. Washing up suddenly becomes considerably less tedious when the reward is a view across the surrounding countryside.
Who said chores couldn't come with scenery?
The adjoining utility room and WC continue the same thoughtful design, with matching worktops tying the spaces together and adding that all-important everyday convenience.
From the kitchen, stairs descend to the lower floor, where you'll discover the open-plan living and dining room.
Wood-effect flooring flows beneath your feet, while an abundance of surrounding windows floods the room with natural light and makes the most of those wonderful rural views.
At the heart of the room sits a feature fireplace, creating the perfect focal point for cosy evenings.
Whether you're settling in with a good book, hosting friends for dinner or simply putting your feet up after a long day, this is a space designed for switching off.
There's also useful under-stair storage, proving that even the awkward bits of a house can earn their keep. Head upstairs and you'll find the home's two bedrooms and family bathroom.
The principal bedroom is a generous double, complete with built-in storage, carpeting underfoot and a skylight that floods the room with natural light.
It's a peaceful retreat with plenty of room to start the day feeling suitably refreshed.
The second bedroom also has space for a double bed and features wood flooring, further built-in storage and a rear-facing window. And once again, those views make an appearance.
The family bathroom completes the first floor, offering a full-size bath with shower over, WC, wash basin and heated towel radiator, with tiling throughout providing a practical and polished finish.
Step outside and the charm continues. The garden is a delightful mix of patio, gravel and lawn, creating a variety of spaces for sitting, relaxing and entertaining.
Whether you're after a sunny breakfast spot, somewhere for summer drinks or a quiet corner to admire the view, there's plenty of flexibility.
For green-fingered owners, the raised beds and dedicated gardening areas offer plenty of opportunity to get creative.
There's also a clever two-sided shed/store, providing excellent storage on one side, while the other has the potential to become a fantastic study, studio or hobby room.
So whether you're working from home, painting masterpieces or simply need somewhere to escape the household for an hour, this little outbuilding has plenty of potential. And then there's the view.
The surrounding countryside provides a showstopping backdrop, beautifully framed from the garden and perfect for enjoying with a morning coffee, an afternoon tea or, when the sun goes down, perhaps something slightly more grape-based.
At the front of the property, a gravel driveway provides convenient off-road parking, making coming and going wonderfully straightforward.
Positioned in Brockton, on the outskirts of Eccleshall, the property offers the best of both worlds: Peaceful rural surroundings without feeling completely off the beaten track.
Local amenities, schools and useful travel links are all within easy reach, while home itself provides a welcome retreat from the hustle and bustle.
