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
Fancy owning a home with roots dating back to the 17th century? This truly one-of-a-kind detached cottage in Banstead offers almost 1,600 sqft of beautifully balanced character and modern living.
Originally built in 1635, the property was transformed into Merrymeet Cottage in the 1930s, creating the charming home that stands today.
The current owners have done an exceptional job of preserving its period features while tastefully introducing the modern touches buyers are looking for.
From the moment you step inside, the home oozes charm, warmth and timeless elegance. The property also benefits from two separate entrances to the plot.
The main entrance is from Carshalton Road, while a second access point at the rear provides two additional parking spaces and a picturesque walk through the beautiful garden to the cottage itself.
Homes with this much history, character and kerb appeal rarely come to the market. If you're looking for something truly special, Merrymeet Cottage deserves to be at the top of your viewing list.
