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
An exceptional country estate in a magical limestone valley with planning permission for a landmark new residence.
There are few opportunities to acquire a site of such beauty, provenance and architectural distinction as Church Cottage.
Occupying approximately 2.5 acres of enchanting gardens and grounds, this remarkble property enjoys an idyllic setting within a secluded limestone valley where mature trees, flowing water and established planting create an atomsphere of rare tranquility.
Church Cottage comes with the significant benefit of full planning permission for the demolition of the existing cottage and the construction of an outstanding five-bedroom country house, designed by a RIBA Royal Gold Medal-winning architect.
The approved design is both timeless and contemporary, conceived to sit effortlessly within it's landscape while providing elegant, light-filled accommodation for modern living.
The property’s history is every bit as compelling as its future.
Church Cottage was formerly owned by H Avray Tipping, the celebrated architectural editor of Country Life magazine, whose influence helped shape the appreciation of Britain’s finest country houses and gardens during the early twentieth century.
During his ownership, Tipping created an exquisite water garden, thoughtfully woven into the natural contours of the valley.
Echoes of his vision remain today, lending the landscape a rare sense of romance and historical significance. The grounds are a defining feature of the estate.
Sweeping lawns, mature specimen trees, ancient limestone outcrops and the remnants of Tipping’s celebrated water garden combine to create a landscape of exceptional character, offering privacy, serenity and year-round beauty.
With planning consent already secured for a residence of architectural excellence, Church Cottage represents a rare opportunity to create an exceptional modern country house while honouring the remarkable heritage of this special place.
Properties offering such a compelling combination of architectural pedigree, historic provenance and an outstanding natural setting seldom come to the market.
