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
This charming and beautifully presented three bedroom, detached cottage has been sympathetically modernised by the current owners, while still retaining a wealth of period character.
High ceilings, exposed beams, original oak flooring, open fireplaces, and a large Georgian-style bay window all contribute to its timeless appeal, while thoughtful updates provide the comfort of modern living.
The ground floor offers a welcoming double-aspect reception room with oak wood flooring and fireplace, a spacious dining room flooded with light through its bay window, and a well-equipped kitchen.
Together, these spaces create a warm and inviting home with excellent flow for both everyday life and entertaining. Upstairs, the property boasts three bedrooms.
The master bedroom is generously proportioned and fitted with wardrobes, while the second double bedroom offers further flexibility for family living.
The third bedroom provides an ideal guest room, child’s room, or home office. A smart white bathroom suite with a good-sized shower completes the first floor.
Externally, the rear garden has been professionally designed for low maintenance yet maximum enjoyment.
This private and secluded space includes a raised deck, terrace, neat lawn, and a brick-built barbecue, providing an idyllic setting for relaxation or social gatherings.
Off-street parking and a practical outbuilding add further convenience and versatility.
