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
Situated in the popular village of Bratton Fleming, on the fringes of Exmoor National Park, tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and just a fifteen-minute drive from Barnstaple town centre, this well-presented three-bedroom detached bungalow offers versatile accommodation, generous gardens and ample parking.
You are welcomed into a spacious open hallway which sets the tone for the light and airy feel throughout.
The lounge features a large front-facing window allowing plenty of natural light to pour in, complemented by a wood-burning stove installed by the current owners, creating a cosy focal point.
Returning to the hallway, the layout becomes particularly flexible.
Two interconnecting bedrooms provide the option to create a separate living arrangement, with internal access leading through to an annexe area.
Within the annexe there is a bedroom with a well-presented en-suite shower room, an additional reception space currently used as a lounge and its own kitchen with wall and base units, sink and drainer, built-in oven and a door opening onto the rear garden, making it ideal for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.
Towards the far end of the bungalow is the principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes, alongside a three-piece suite bathroom.
To the rear sits the impressive kitchen/diner, a real hub of the home, presented in excellent order featuring a built-in double oven, microwave and hob, space for white goods, a window overlooking the garden and a bright glazed dining area with French doors opening directly outside.
The garden is beautifully maintained and private, with mature borders, a lawn, patio seating area and space for sheds.
There is additional seating and a greenhouse to the side, with access leading around to the front where you will find further lawned space, a pond and ample parking for several vehicles.
A wonderfully adaptable home in a peaceful village setting. From Barnstaple proceed out of town on the Goodleigh Road, signposted to Bratton Fleming.
Proceed into the village and take the turning on the right into Fairfield.
Continue along the road following it around to the left, then take the first left into the cul-de-sac where the property will be at the end, in the middle displaying a for sale board.
