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.

Outside The south-facing rear garden is utterly beautiful, designed as a mature and well-loved cottage garden by the current owners, who are passionate gardeners.
It is a well-established garden ecosystem providing year-round interest with continuous colour from spring to late autumn via a mix of mature trees, shrubs, climbing roses, bulbs, and self-seeders.
These actively attract local birds, pollenators and butterflies.
The garden is best enjoyed from a solid oak-covered porch patio area, creating a sheltered outdoor seating area, and there is useful storage in a log store and a dedicated fire-pit zone.
