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
This outstanding four / five bedroom Grade II listed period village home (over 3,300 sqft), with extensive outbuildings and enclosed landscaped grounds (over 0.25 acre), has been sympathetically renovated and upgraded to create a spacious and versatile family dwelling with exceptional road links for the busy commuter.
Boasting early 19th Century origins and cleverly created from the former coach houses and stables of Hillam Hall, this unique link detached period home reveals a tasteful blend of period features and modern creature comforts, supported by extensive outbuildings with valuable home business space.
With handsome stone elevations under a replaced stone roof the accommodation, with gas fired heating, is approached via a welcoming reception hall with a bespoke staircase and guest cloakroom.
The 25ft sitting room is a perfect place for relaxing and entertaining with the additional comfort of a separate snug / family room - an ideal retreat on a winter evening.
An impressive and comprehensively appointed family kitchen opens into a formal dining room - perfect for special occasions. There is also a useful utility room.
Arranged over two floors the principal bedroom suite incorporates the eponymous Dovecote with a large double bedroom and dressing room boasting an en-suite of commensurate size and finally a staircase to the Dovecote itself which could provide additional bedroom or private study / home gymnasium space.
Three further true double bedrooms are served by a stylish house bathroom and the house provides private living zones for all family age groups.
This impressive and unique footprint is complemented by an equally versatile range of single story outbuildings (over 900 sqft) on the opposite side of a gated courtyard to the main residence.
A 23ft home office with its own bathroom adjoins a well-equipped workshop on one side and a secure storeroom on the other.
This suite of rooms could easily be adapted to create dependant relative or guest accommodation. Finally a substantial open-fronted stone built carport will accommodate three vehicles.
Gated and private garden areas are equally well presented comprising walled lawns, a central courtyard and ornamental seating areas forming safe play areas for children and pets - in all just over 0.25 acres.
This is a quiet yet convenient village setting within the Conservation Area perfect for the busy family seeking ease of access to Leeds, York and further afield.
There is a strong community spirit with a popular hostelry, local sports ground and a highly regarded primary school in the neighbouring village of Monk Fryston.
