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
Heron Lodge, Farndon Occupying a secluded position down a private lane close to the river in the highly sought-after village of Farndon, Heron Lodge represents a truly unique and versatile property offering an abundance of accommodation, income-generating potential, and exciting future possibilities.
Set within generous grounds, the property comprises a detached three-bedroom main residence, a separate two-bedroom lodge, a modern twin bedroom Mobile Home, a one-bedroom outer house, and a variety of useful outbuildings.

The extensive grounds and outbuildings offer enormous scope for further development and enhancement, subject to any necessary planning permissions.
For buyers seeking a lifestyle investment, the site could potentially be transformed into a boutique glamping destination, with space for glamping pods, shepherd's huts, holiday cabins, or other tourism-related ventures.
