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 stone built cottage offers a surprising amount of accommodation along with a huge garden to the rear.
The current owners purchased the property in March 2022 and have since invested a good deal of time, money and effort into creating the lovely home you see today.
Works have included a kitchen renovation, new doors and windows, replacing the old bathroom is now a fabulous shower room, and lots of cosmetic work has been undertaken to further enhance the property.
Externally, there is a small garden to the front, whilst at the rear there is a very large, mature garden that extends much further than expected.
It is conveniently located for access to nearby schools, a regular bus service, and a short drive up to the M62 at Junctions 23 & 24.

They have created a rustic/traditional kitchen by installing an Armitage Shanks pot sink with a drainer and mixer/instant hot water tap, fitted larder style storage cupboard, shelving, and a large free standing island with a massive Butchers block top which has created a sizeable breakfast bar to 3 sides and storage beneath.
