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
The Coach House, Southport Road. A Rare Opportunity to Own a Piece of Local History.
Steeped in history and dating back over 100 years, The Coach House is a truly unique detached residence, originally built as the coach house for the Old Vicarage.
Hidden away down a private resin driveway, this charming home combines period character with modern comforts, offering spacious accommodation, excellent outside space and outstanding potential in a highly sought-after setting.
From the moment you arrive, the property’s secluded position and attractive appearance create an immediate sense of privacy and exclusivity.
The private resin driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the integral double garage with electrically operated doors.
Stepping through the welcoming entrance, you are greeted by a spacious reception hallway featuring an impressive half-turn staircase rising to the first floor, immediately showcasing the character and generous proportions found throughout the home.
A convenient ground-floor WC is positioned just off the hallway. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to provide both practicality and sociable living.
Fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, it offers ample worktop space and a breakfast bar that comfortably seats four people, perfect for everyday family life or entertaining.
Integrated appliances include a gas hob, electric oven, and built-in microwave, with additional space for an American-style fridge-freezer and dishwasher.
A door provides internal access to the spacious double garage, offering excellent storage or further potential if desired.
Positioned to the left of the hallway, the principal living room is warm and inviting, centred around a charming multi-fuel burner that creates a cosy focal point.
French doors open into the conservatory, providing an additional reception space with tiled flooring and French doors leading directly onto the patio and rear gardens, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Outside, the gardens are a true highlight. A generous paved patio provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining before leading onto beautifully maintained lawned gardens.
Beyond this is a further hardstanding area, ideal for sheds, additional storage or future landscaping opportunities.
Fencing and established hedging provide privacy and clearly defined boundaries, creating a peaceful outdoor environment.
The first floor continues to impress with a naturally bright landing enhanced by several Velux windows that flood the space with natural light.
The principal bedroom is well-appointed with a range of fitted wardrobes, matching drawers and cupboards, providing excellent storage whilst retaining a spacious feel.
It is complemented by a private en-suite shower room comprising a shower enclosure, WC and wash hand basin.
There are two further bedrooms positioned to the front of the property, each enjoying pleasant outlooks through feature windows, making them ideal family bedrooms, guest accommodation or home office space.
Completing the first floor is the family bathroom, fitted with a bath with shower over, WC and vanity wash hand basin, finished with stylish flooring and contemporary fittings.
Modern comforts includes underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and first floor accommodation with thermostats in each room, while the conservatory benefits from its own independently controlled traditional radiator system, providing year-round comfort and flexibility.
