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
Laurel Cottage is a charming detached character home that was formerly part of the historic manor of Tolmers Park.
Situated on a generous and secluded plot of just over half an acre, this delightful house offers peaceful country living within a short distance of the centre of Newgatestreet Village and it's well-regarded pubs and restaurant.
The accommodation comprises three ensuite double bedrooms, three reception rooms, fitted kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, wc and a detached outbuilding that serves as both double garage and gym, with changing rooms for the heated outdoor swimming pool.
Planning consent had been granted (the plans have now expired) to convert the outbuilding into a self-contained one-bedroom annexe.
The shops and amenities of Cuffley are only two miles away as well as the direct overground rail link to London Moorgate and Kings Cross and there is an excellent selection of schools locally including Ponsbourne St Mary, Stormont, Lochinver, Queenswood and Dame Alice Owen.
