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
Set along a private no-through road in a discreet village position, just a few minutes' walk from the estuary and village amenities, this beautifully converted barn sits within approximately 2.65 acres of gardens, enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
Converted in the mid-1980s, it now offers a generous and characterful home of just under 3,000 sq ft, where original features have been carefully retained.
A particular highlight is the roundhouse sitting room, where a vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers create a striking sense of volume, centred around a wood-burning stove.
The generous kitchen/breakfast room is positioned to take advantage of the outlook over the gardens, complemented by a practical utility space.
The principal bedroom suite is also located on this level, with a dressing room and en suite, while a further room on the ground floor provides the option of a study, fifth bedroom or dining room.
On the lower ground floor, three additional bedrooms are arranged around a central landing, served by a family shower room.
Storerooms provide useful, easily accessible storage, and there is also a wine cellar.
Outside, the gardens extend to approximately 2.65 acres, predominantly laid to lawn and framed by mature trees and established planting, with an orchard area adding further interest.
In a village setting where homes are typically more closely arranged, the scale of the grounds is exceptionally rare, offering a sense of space and privacy that is seldom found so close to the water and village centre.
A double garage, separate single garage and ample driveway parking complete the property.
The access lane is privately owned, with maintenance shared between neighbouring properties that benefit from rights of way.
The setting feels private and tucked away, yet remains within easy reach of the water, with the estuary, quayside and village amenities all just a few minutes' walk away.
Set in the heart of the South Hams Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the twin villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo offer an enviable coastal lifestyle.
Overlooking the peaceful Yealm Estuary, this sought-after location is a haven for sailing enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
With the shimmering waters just moments from the property, it is an exceptional setting for those drawn to life on the water whether setting sail for coastal adventures, paddleboarding along tranquil inlets, or taking an invigorating cold-water swim in sheltered waters.
The children's cadet sailing club at the village yacht club also offers a wonderful opportunity for young sailors to learn the ropes.
The villages have a strong sense of community, with everything needed exceptionally close by from this popular village location.
A village Co-op, post office, pharmacy, two churches and a selection of three welcoming pubs are all within a short stroll, along with a popular delicatessen/café that forms a lively hub of village life just moments from the property.
The exceptionally well-regarded primary school is also a stone's throw away, adding further appeal for families.
Throughout the year, the villages come alive with events, from regattas to festive gatherings.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, spectacular coastal and countryside walks are on the doorstep, including the breathtaking South West Coast Path and National Trust-owned shoreline.
Woodland trails and hidden coves offer endless opportunities to explore, creating a perfect balance of adventure and tranquillity.
