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
Nestled in the heart of Fairy Cross, this charming three-bedroom cottage combines character, space and breathtaking countryside and coastal views to create a truly special home.
Enjoying a surprisingly peaceful setting despite its convenient roadside position, the property benefits from private off-road parking for multiple vehicles, a detached double garage and a generous rear garden with far-reaching views across trust land towards the sea and Lundy Island.
Stepping inside, the entrance hall leads into an impressively sized living room, a welcoming and versatile space centred around a striking stone fireplace with wood-burning stove.
The room offers excellent proportions for a range of furniture layouts, comfortably accommodating multiple sofas, armchairs and additional storage while still retaining a wonderful sense of openness.
Character features including exposed beams add warmth and charm, making this an ideal room for both relaxing evenings and entertaining guests.
To the rear, the kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with a range of modern units and generous worktop space, with ample room for appliances and everyday family life.
Adjoining the kitchen is a separate dining room, providing a dedicated space for family meals and social gatherings, with enough room for a substantial dining table and additional furniture if desired.
Beyond the dining area are useful utility and log store areas, enhancing the practicality of the home.
The first floor offers three genuine double bedrooms, each enjoying excellent natural light and attractive outlooks.
The principal bedroom provides comfortable space for a king-size bed alongside wardrobes, bedside furniture and additional bedroom storage.
The second double bedroom is equally well-proportioned and offers ample room for a double bed and freestanding furniture.
The third bedroom is another generous double, capable of accommodating a double bed, wardrobes and further furnishings, making it ideal for family members, guests or home working requirements.
Serving the bedrooms is a spacious family bathroom featuring both a separate shower enclosure and a beautiful freestanding roll-top bath, creating a luxurious space to unwind at the end of the day.
Outside, the rear garden is a standout feature of the property.
Laid mainly to lawn and extending a considerable distance from the house, it provides plenty of room for children to play, gardening enthusiasts to indulge their passion, or simply to sit and enjoy the exceptional views.
Looking out across protected trust land towards the coastline and Lundy Island, the outlook is both picturesque and ever-changing throughout the seasons.
The detached double garage provides excellent storage, workshop potential or secure parking, while the private off-road parking area adds further convenience.
A wonderful blend of character, practicality and stunning scenery, this delightful cottage offers an increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy village living with spectacular coastal views, generous outside space and excellent parking facilities.
