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
The Old Smithy is a peaceful cul-de-sac of attractive, detached homes in the heart of Cockerham. The property offers style, comfort and exceptional modern living.
From the moment you step into the sizable and welcoming hallway, the sense of space and quality is unmistakable. At the rear sits the show-stopping kitchen diner-truly the heart of the home.
Decorated in calming, complementary hues and finished to an outstanding standard, this stunning space features underfloor heating, a central island, solid marble worksurfaces, and a charming Belfast sink.
There is ample room for a large family dining table, creating the perfect setting for gatherings of any size.
French doors open directly onto the beautifully landscaped rear garden, designed for easy maintenance while retaining a natural, inviting feel-ideal for busy lifestyles, with plenty of space for children to play and pets to roam.
Adjacent to the kitchen diner, the main living room offers a cosy, relaxing retreat, complete with a wood-burning stove for those snug evenings in.
A versatile office just off the kitchen provides a great spot for work or study, or could easily serve as a utility room if preferred. A convenient downstairs WC completes the ground floor layout.
Upstairs, a generous landing with built-in storage leads to four well-proportioned double bedrooms.
The master bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and wouldn't look out of place in a boutique hotel.
Outside, the property continues to impress, with a side driveway and single garage providing valuable parking and storage.
A beautiful home in a sought-after village location, offering space, charm and everything a modern family could need-early viewing is highly recommended.
Living in Cockerham offers the perfect blend of peaceful village charm and convenient access to the amenities of nearby Lancaster.
Surrounded by stunning countryside, coastal walks and open farmland, it’s an ideal location for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits and a close-knit community feel.
Yet, with Lancaster and the motorway network just a short drive away, residents benefit from excellent schools, shops, transport links and cultural attractions.
Cockerham provides a tranquil rural lifestyle without sacrificing the practicality and connectivity of city living.
