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 large, principal dual aspect bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.
Outside, the shingle driveway provides parking and turning for several vehicles. Two detached outbuildings on the left are suitable for a number of purposes.
