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.

The setting is a defining feature, with views across the surrounding countryside, while the approach and arrangement of the buildings create an appealing sense of privacy and seclusion.
The house itself has been extended and reworked to create a sequence of spaces that respond directly to the landscape.
From the entrance, the layout begins to open out, drawing you through towards the principal living areas where glazing and volume become more pronounced.
The main sitting room is arranged to take full advantage of its connection to the garden, with wide expanses of glazing set within timber framing, allowing light to move through the space while maintaining a clear visual link to the outside.
The proportions are generous without feeling over-scaled, and the detailing, including exposed structural elements and carefully integrated joinery, gives the room a sense of permanence.
This sense of openness continues into the adjoining living and dining spaces, where the architecture becomes more expressive.
A vaulted ceiling with exposed beams introduces height, while rooflights and full-height glazing bring in consistent natural light throughout the day.
Large sliding doors extend the space directly onto the terrace, allowing it to function as a natural continuation of the interior during warmer months.
The arrangement is both practical and sociable, with clearly defined zones for seating and dining, while maintaining a cohesive flow.
The kitchen is positioned to anchor this part of the house, fitted with bespoke cabinetry by Tom Howley and a substantial central island finished with stone work surfaces.
Integrated appliances are set within the main run, while a range cooker is framed by a traditional mantle, introducing a more grounded, functional element.
A separate utility room, also by Tom Howley, provides additional storage and working space, ensuring the main kitchen remains uncluttered and efficient in day-to-day use.
More formal accommodation is provided by a separate dining room, where the use of vertical timber panelling introduces texture and contrast, creating a space that feels distinct from the more open-plan areas.
A particularly useful addition on the ground floor is a self-contained suite with its own independent access, arranged to include a bedroom, separate living room, currently fitted as a cinema room with bespoke media wall, and a kitchen, alongside a shower room.
The layout offers a high degree of flexibility for extended family, guest accommodation or potential income, while remaining clearly distinct from the main house.
On the first floor, the bedroom accommodation is arranged with a clear emphasis on space and outlook.
The principal suite is particularly well-proportioned, with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams echoing the architectural language of the ground floor.
Windows are positioned to frame views across the surrounding landscape, while fitted storage is integrated in a way that maintains the simplicity of the space.
The en suite bathroom is finished with high-quality materials, including stone surfaces and a walk-in shower, creating a room that feels both considered and durable.
Further bedrooms are similarly well-sized, each with its own character defined by the roofline and window placement.
Bathrooms across this level have been finished with a mix of contemporary fittings and more traditional detailing, providing a consistent level of finish throughout.
Beyond the main house, the outbuildings add a further layer of versatility.
A detached garage with an attached gym is positioned to one side, providing both practical storage and a dedicated space for fitness, with direct access to the grounds.
A separate timber-built structure offers additional accommodation, currently arranged as a games room with a mezzanine level, creating a space that can be adapted for leisure, guest use or home working depending on requirements.
The space is further supported by a full bathroom with shower, enhancing its practicality for more independent or extended use.
In addition, a detached home office provides a more private, self-contained working environment.
Externally The gardens and grounds provide an attractive setting for the house, with the total site extending to approximately 1.34 acres, including a 0.5-acre paddock.
Extensive lawns established trees and thoughtfully planted borders create a wonderful sense of space, while a substantial stone-paved terrace extends across the rear of the property, providing generous areas for outdoor dining and relaxation, with direct access from the principal living spaces.
Raised planters, ornamental trees and carefully positioned seating areas add interest, while a further covered terrace offers a sheltered spot overlooking the gardens.
Beyond the main lawn, post-and-rail fencing encloses the paddock, which includes a timber outbuilding, while mature hedging and trees provide an established backdrop.
A sweeping driveway offers extensive parking and access to the detached garage building and adjoining covered carport, completing the practical and attractive outdoor arrangements.
