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
A beautiful 4 (double) bedroom family house, built in 2003, having undergone extensive modernisation, extension and improvement, and perfectly located within this small, select close of award-winning individual homes, in the very heart of this quiet village.
Almost every aspect of this house has been re-fitted, redecorated and finished to the highest specification; including a new kitchen, new bathroom, new en-suite, new cloakroom, new utility room cupboards and a cleverly extended living space on the ground floor, creating a new family room / dining room.
There are two pretty (low maintenance) stone-walled gardens outside plus a large single garage positioned in front of the house.
Upon arriving outside at the front of the house, there is a small front garden enclosed with an attractive stone wall.
Once inside, there is a formal entrance hall, with stairs rising the first floor, a utility room, and a ground floor WC.
Accommodation on the ground floor includes a large living room with patio doors and a (remote controlled) gas fire in a beautiful stone fireplace, an extended dining/family room, also with patio doors, and a superb re-fitted kitchen.
The gas boiler has recently been replaced. New wooden flooring extends seamlessly from the hall, through the kitchen and into the new living room.
Hand-made wooden bench seating around the dining table contains extensive storage. The kitchen contains a (double) pantry cupboard, and there are also a range of different lighting options.
There is a Quooker tap for instant hot water. Rising to the first floor, there is a landing with doors to all rooms.
There are four double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and an en-suite shower room to bedroom one. All bedrooms have extensive built-in wardrobes, and there is an airing cupboard.
From the landing there is access to a large boarded-out loft space. All rooms have TV aerial points.
Outside, the property has 2 garden areas; a south-east facing paved garden accessed from the living room and the dining room which gets the morning sun, plus a smaller paved garden area acessed from the kitchen which gets the sun from midday all the way into a Summer evening.
Both gardens have power and water taps. The side garden has a high quality metal bin store and hand-made wooden electric gates to the street which can be controlled by a phone app.
Directly in front of the house there is a shared drive with off-road parking, plus the large single garage with remote control door opening.
There is an Ohme EV charger discretely placed at the front of the house. The house has a full alarm system which can be accessed remotely by phone app.
