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
Situated within the heart of the ever popular and scenic Dales market town of Sedbergh, a unique opportunity to convert a Grade II Listed former butcher's shop and abattoir.
A 'Designated Historic Asset', the buildings have significantly changed since their original use as a textile manufactory in the mid to late Victorian period.
The site is located on the south side of Main Street in the town centre. It can be accessed via Weavers Yard at the head of an alley running north off Back Lane.
Detailed planning consent has been granted to convert into five residential dwellings, two with one bedroom and three with two bedrooms. The sixth unit is to be retained as a retail unit.
The approved plans and elevation designs are shown within the brochure, but for complete information please visit the planning department pages on Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority's website ( using the reference S/03/148H for 'full planning permission for conversion of the existing residential unit situated above and to the rear of the retail space into 3 No.
(C3) residential units and conversion of former abattoir into 2 No. (C3) residential units)'.
Some occupancy restrictions apply - a s106 agreement is in place with Yorkshire Dales National Park and further information on the local occupancy can be found on the YDNPA planning portal or from the agent.
To find the property - on foot, head down Main Street and No. 37-39 is on the right hand side opposite The Black Bull. If travelling by car, parking is available at the nearby car park on Joss Lane.
