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
FOR SALE BY ONLINE AUCTION.
An intriguing two-bedroom end-terrace cottage occupying a generously sized plot, offering far more than first meets the eye including beautiful views and presenting an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking a property with potential.
The house was originally built around circa 1850's and up until around 1950’s the site is understood to have previously accommodated two additional cottages within the side garden, which have since been demolished.
This history highlights the scope for further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The existing cottage provides well-proportioned accommodation throughout and, whilst it would benefit from modernisation, offers an excellent canvas for enhancement to suit a variety of needs.
Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking, lawned gardens, a single garage, and a brick outbuilding currently utilised as a workshop, adding further versatility to the plot.
Overall, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a property with both immediate potential and longer-term development prospects. NO CHAIN.
