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
Salehurst stands towards the end of Lower Broad Oak Road in a quiet and peaceful location yet still within walking distance of the main amenities of this wonderful and prestigious woodland village.
This is an individual detached chalet-style bungalow originally built in the 1960s but carefully extended in later years to provide good-sized, light and spacious accommodation for a family or retirement occupation.
The main accommodation on the ground floor includes a hall, spacious lounge with fireplace and patio doors, a very good-sized dining room and a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room.
There is also a utility room, cloakroom W.C., two good-sized bedrooms (the biggest one with an excellent array of wardrobes) and an attractive fitted family bathroom.
On the first floor are two further rooms, one currently used as a hobby room that could be easily separated to create a fourth bedroom if required.
The spacious bedroom has a large walk-in wardrobe that would be a suitable space for an en-suite shower room.
All the PVC double-glazed windows enjoy lovely outlooks over the surrounding gardens, and there is a gas-fired central heating system.
The neighbouring property highlights the potential to extend further, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The property stands in lovely mature grounds, extremely well stocked with a wide variety of shrubs, plants and trees, including some highly unusual and interesting specimens.
A tarmac drive provides parking and turning space and leads to the detached single garage with useful workshop adjoining.
The grounds have lawns, a wonderful pond, walkways between shrubberies, as well as a vegetable area, a timber shed and two greenhouses.
All enjoying a southerly aspect, privacy, together with peace and quiet.
Redferns highly recommend a viewing of this excellent property to appreciate the excellent location with delightful gardens amounting to just over half an acre in all.
The total plot measures approximately 0.67 acres.
West Hill is a distinctive and desirable village with a well-stocked mini-supermarket and post office at its centre, along with a charming church, an excellent primary school, village hall, garage, hairdresser, dentist and regular bus services.
The nearby town of Ottery St Mary, approximately two miles away, offers a wider range of amenities, including a renowned secondary school, medical centre, supermarket and independent shops.
Exeter and the M5 are around eight miles away via the A30, while Honiton (with mainline rail services) and the coast at Sidmouth are both within easy reach.
