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.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a generous 20ft lounge/diner, with a brick-built fireplace creating a natural focal point and adding to the character of the room.
To the rear, the property has been extended to create a charming kitchen overlooking the garden, making good use of the additional space while retaining the cottage feel.
