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 charming and elegantly presented property, offering additional accommodation with excellent potential for home working or income generation.
Pentre Bach is an architecturally attractive country cottage that blends heritage charm with modern living.

Neutral décor creates a calm, airy feel, while tiled flooring flows through to the kitchen/breakfast area and garden room.
The kitchen centres around a range oven, with a butler sink, modern cabinetry, and wooden worktops.
Its open-plan layout leads into the bright garden room, where large windows and doors flood the space with light and connect seamlessly to the outdoors.
Opposite, a generous multi-aspect reception room features wood flooring, exposed beams, and flexible space for seating, dining, or music. Double doors open onto a balcony with impressive views.
A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor. Upstairs, a central staircase leads to four bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The principal bedroom is of particular note, offering a peaceful retreat, with French doors to a south-west facing balcony, ample wardrobe storage, and an en suite shower room.
Additional accommodation adds versatility, including a timber cabin with three offices, kitchen, cloakroom, and verandah, plus a well-presented mobile home.
A large barn, currently used as a gym and leisure space, offers further potential with useful storerooms. A gravel driveway leads to the house and outbuildings.
The grounds feature lawns, formal gardens, and natural grassland with mature trees and hedging.
A large decked terrace provides space for outdoor dining and relaxation, complete with planted beds and a pergola for shade. Approximately 9.15 acres in all. Services: Mains electricity and water.
