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
Positioned in one of Shenstone village's most coveted locations, The Chestnuts presents an unparalleled opportunity to acquire an exceptional family home, transformed by a substantial £700,000 refurbishment in 2019, which included a complete remodelling of its impressive layout.
What truly sets The Chestnuts apart is the meticulous attention to detail and outstanding quality evident at every turn.
From the moment you arrive, private gates open to reveal a wealth of parking and two sets of double garages, ensuring both security and convenience.
The property sits majestically on a generous plot, with expansive gardens, a tranquil patio, and a charming courtyard enveloping the residence.
Step inside, and you'll be greeted by an impressive 4323 sq ft of internal space, meticulously crafted to blend modern luxury with practical family living.
The bespoke, illuminated staircase in the entrance hall is a magnificent architectural feature, leading the eye and through elegant Crittal doors into the heart of the home: an open-plan kitchen living dining room.
This dynamic space is designed for both grand entertaining and everyday comfort, featuring full-width bi-folding doors that dissolve the boundary between indoors and the beautiful garden, complemented by a cosy log burner perfect for cooler evenings.
The kitchen itself is a chef's dream, boasting the exceptional £15,000 AGA R7 Series cooker alongside a suite of high-end Miele appliances, including an oven, induction hob, and dishwasher, plus a premium Fisher & Paykel fridge-freezer.
Adjacent, the substantial laundry/boot room is 'the dream' space of organisation, offering immense storage solutions for a bustling household.
A versatile ground floor WC offers the potential for conversion to an additional shower room, adding further flexibility and there is integral access into the first of the double garages.
Completing the ground floor is a spacious sitting/family room providing a distinct area for relaxation and socialising.
The upper level continues to impress with five generous double bedrooms and four beautifully appointed bathrooms, three of which are en-suite.
The principal bedroom (8.38m x 4.62m) is a luxurious sanctuary, complete with a delightful Juliette balcony overlooking the garden and a stunning en-suite shower room.
Bedroom two acts as a second master suite, featuring its own en-suite and a dedicated dressing/sitting room, offering a private and expansive feel.
Two more double bedrooms, bedroom three with its own en-suite and bedroom four, along with bedroom five, share a stylish family bathroom.
Adding to the unique appeal is a detached studio (5.61m x 5.49m) equipped with hot and cold water, providing a versatile space ideal for a home office, gym, or creative pursuits.
This, alongside a separate detached double garage (6.1m x 5.79m) and the potential for further outbuildings, offers an incredible scope for customisation and growth, truly making this property adaptable to your evolving needs.
Shenstone is a highly desirable village, renowned for its excellent amenities, including a train station with convenient access to Birmingham (approx. 30 minutes) and Lichfield Trent Valley (approx.
15 minutes) for links to London Euston. The village boasts a vibrant community with four dining pubs, an award-winning butchers, and a highly regarded primary school.
