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
Stunning Grade II Listed Countryside Home with Detached Barn & Parkland Gardens – Outskirts of Braughing Set quietly on the rural fringe of Braughing, this Grade II listed home offers a wonderfully authentic slice of English countryside living.
The house itself is full of period character—timbers, gentle quirks, and a sense of history that has settled comfortably into the fabric of the building, yet it’s the setting that truly distinguishes it.
The gardens unfold in a parkland style, with broad lawns, established trees, thoughtful planting, and a natural lake that gives the grounds a calm, almost pastoral quality.
It’s a place that encourages slow mornings, long walks around the garden, and an easy connection with the landscape.
The approach, via a traditional coach-drive entrance and neatly landscaped frontage, leads to a home of generous proportions.
Four bedrooms, a striking vaulted study, and five reception rooms provide a variety of spaces, some intimate, some more open, all with the warmth and texture you’d expect from a property of this age.
A particular highlight is the detached barn, measuring around 1,200 sq ft. Currently arranged as a double garage, workshop, and studio, it offers far more than simple storage.
For anyone working from home, it presents an excellent opportunity to create a substantial, separate workspace.
Equally, its scale and structure lend themselves to more ambitious ideas: a creative studio, guest accommodation, or a full conversion (subject to the usual consents).
It’s the sort of outbuilding that can evolve over time, adapting to changing needs.
Altogether, this is a home with genuine presence, quietly impressive, rich in character, and set within grounds that feel both private and expansive.
A rare combination of heritage, space, and potential.
