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
A charming and spacious first floor apartment positioned in a stunning canal side setting on the outskirts of Marsden village and benefits from generous parking.
EPC - tbc Occupying a wonderful canal-side position just outside Marsden village, this spacious one bedroom first floor apartment enjoys a particularly attractive setting with lovely views over the Huddersfield Narrow Canal and surrounding countryside.
Sandhill Cottages is a pretty and somewhat hidden row of traditional properties, tucked away from the main road and approached along a little-known lane running down the side of Sparth Reservoir.
Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains conveniently placed for Marsden village centre and its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, along with the railway station providing connections towards Huddersfield, Manchester and Leeds.
One of the real highlights of the property is its position alongside the canal, with the towpath providing scenic walks straight from the doorstep and beautiful countryside all around.
The apartment is accessed at ground floor level through a useful entrance porch, providing a practical space for removing coats and shoes before continuing into the hallway.
Stairs then rise to the first floor accommodation where there is a surprisingly spacious landing area.
The generous lounge/dining room is positioned to take full advantage of the setting, with a large window enjoying a wonderful outlook across the canal towards the woodland and countryside beyond.
There is plenty of room for both comfortable seating and a dining area, making this an excellent main living space.
The separate kitchen is fitted with a good range of wall and base units with complementary work surfaces, an integrated oven and hob, Belfast sink and space for additional appliances.
A large window brings in plenty of natural light and enjoys a pleasant leafy outlook. The bedroom is another particularly generous room, with ample space for a large bed and additional furniture.
Fitted wardrobes provide excellent storage, while the rear-facing window looks out across the neighbouring fields and surrounding countryside.
Completing the accommodation is the shower room, fitted with a modern white suite and a generous glazed shower enclosure.
Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking for multiple vehicles, a particularly useful feature for an apartment of this type (£1per year lease payment).
There is also a small garden area providing space to sit outside and enjoy the surroundings, together with a useful garden shed for additional storage.
The immediate setting is wonderfully scenic, with the canal, towpath, reservoir and open countryside combining to create an idyllic semi-rural location.
A lovely home that would be particularly well suited to a first-time buyer, professional, downsizer or anyone looking to enjoy village and countryside living, with the canal quite literally on the doorstep.
