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.

A SUBSTANTIAL FOUR BEDROOM DETACHED RESIDENCE WITHIN THE IDYLLIC VILLAGE OF WEST MILTON For sale for the first time in over 50 years and offered to the market with no onward chain, this attractive and substantial four bedroom detached home occupies a generous third of an acre plot positioned in the no through road of Ruscombe Lane, within the idyllic village of West Milton.
Beautifully enhanced by the owners, the property boasts an impressive three storey extension to the rear, creating spacious and versatile accommodation throughout.
Enjoying an enviable westerly aspect, the home is perfectly positioned to make the most of its picturesque setting.
Internally, the heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive semi open plan kitchen, dining and living area.
Benefitting from a triple aspect, this wonderful space is flooded with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere.
Positioned to the rear of the property, the lounge features French doors opening onto a timber balcony overlooking the garden.
The kitchen is well appointed with an extensive range of base and eye level units, a freestanding electric cooker, and space for additional freestanding appliances.
A single door provides convenient external access from the kitchen to the side of the home.
A separate reception room is situated to the front of the property, enjoying a dual aspect and centred around an attractive multi-fuel stove, creating a cosy and inviting space.
The ground floor accommodation is completed with a welcoming entrance hall and a useful shower room comprising a shower cubicle, WC, and wash hand basin set within a vanity unit.
From a short hallway between the dining area and reception room, stairs rise to the first floor, where four bedrooms and the family bathroom are located.
The principal bedroom is an exceptionally generous double, featuring built in wardrobes, a Juliet balcony overlooking the rear garden, and a contemporary en suite comprising a walk in shower with dual shower heads, WC, and wash hand basin.
Bedrooms two and three are both well proportioned doubles, each benefitting from fitted wardrobes.
Bedroom two further enjoys front and rear facing Velux windows, allowing for an abundance of natural light. Bedroom four is a comfortable single bedroom, equally suited as a home office or study.
The contemporary family bathroom complements the en suite, featuring textured stone effect tiling, a panelled bath with rainfall shower and separate hand shower, WC, heated towel rail, and wash hand basin with vanity unit.
The lower ground floor is accessed externally from the garden and provides a spacious boiler room, which also serves as useful storage for gardening equipment.
This level also benefits from an additional cloakroom comprising a WC and wash hand basin. The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property-s standout features.
Gently sloping away from the house, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn and beautifully landscaped with an abundance of mature trees, shrubs and flowering plants.
A productive apple tree forms a charming focal point, while at the foot of the garden a tranquil stream and large pond are complemented by steps leading down to a decked seating area, providing a peaceful spot to relax.
To the side of the garden is a timber shed, which would benefit from some updating. Additional outbuildings include a block built wood store, a greenhouse, and an additional timber shed.
To the front of the property, a delightful in-and-out driveway is framed by attractively landscaped gardens, which also feature a charming ornamental pond.
The driveway leads to a single garage equipped with an up and over door, power, lighting, and a useful side access door.
Nestled in the picturesque West Dorset countryside, the charming village of West Milton offers a peaceful rural setting just a short drive from the vibrant market town of Bridport.
Surrounded by rolling farmland and scenic walking routes, the village enjoys an idyllic atmosphere while remaining conveniently placed for everyday amenities.
Bridport provides an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and leisure facilities, while the spectacular Jurassic Coast, including the popular beaches at West Bay and Eype, is only a few miles away.
