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
Set within a generous plot in the sought-after village of High Bickington, this three-bedroom detached bungalow enjoys a peaceful setting with far-reaching countryside views.
Offering a wonderful sense of privacy and space, the property is ideal for those looking to embrace village life while remaining within easy reach of nearby amenities.
A welcoming entrance porch leads into the main entrance hall. To the front, there is a good-sized kitchen with a gas aga, and a pleasant outlook.
The lounge provides a comfortable reception area with superb, unhindered views over the countryside, and opens into a bright garden room, creating a second reception space with direct access to the rear garden.
There are three double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from an en-suite WC & sink, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a two-piece suite bathroom and a separate WC.
The layout is practical and well-proportioned throughout.
Externally, the property boasts wraparound gardens, offering a lovely mix of lawn and planting, all enjoying the surrounding countryside views.
A private driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles, along with a single garage and attached potting shed.
The property requires updating and is of non-traditional construction, which may make mortgage lending more difficult, and is therefore likely to appeal to cash buyers.
However, it presents an excellent opportunity to create a bespoke home in a quiet and attractive village location. Leave Barnstaple on the A377 towards Exeter.
After approximately 8 miles, turn right following the signposts to Atherington, then follow signs to High Bickington.
