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
GUIDE PRICE £550,000 to £575,000 Some homes just have a story to tell - dating back to the late 1700's this one is known to have been a terrace of small cottages, an ale house, a chapel, and latterly a much-loved family home for over 40 years.
Set on a generous ¼ acre corner plot, with far-reaching field views towards St Botolph’s Church, it’s a home that gives you a hug the moment you arrive.
Step inside and you’ll find over 2300 sqft of versatile living space, brimming with period features - from exposed beams to fireplaces at each end of the spacious living/dining room.
It’s the kind of space that’s perfect for both cosy evenings in and family gatherings.
The heart of the home is the generous and striking kitchen with its unique mezzanine level above - a lovely spot for formal dining, to relax in a comfy chair and read, or simply enjoying a quiet coffee as you take in the field views.
Back on the ground floor, there’s also a study/office for those who would like a space to work from home, and a second reception room that could easily be a snug, playroom or fifth bedroom.
Practical touches include a separate utility room and pantry, oil-fired central heating, double glazing, and there is a both a shower room and separate W.C.
on the ground floor in addition to a family bathroom upstairs.
Upstairs, four bedrooms offer plenty of room for everyone, with the principal bedroom having eaves storage, and the three double rooms enjoying those gorgeous countryside views.
Outside, the mature cottage-style gardens wrap around the home, with the 1/4 acre corner plot offering plenty of room for keen gardeners to develop, or simply relax and enjoy the changing seasons.
There off-road parking space to the front, and also a rear driveway to a gate leading to the garden, where you might look to explore the possibilities of siting a cabin, cart lodge or garage, subject to the required permissions.
When viewing, you may find it more convenient to park at the rear.
This is one of those rare opportunities - a home with character, space, and the chance to create your perfect forever home in a beautiful, peaceful setting.
