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 accommodation The ground floor opens with a welcoming entrance porch featuring built-in storage, leading directly into a light-filled central hallway that serves as the heart of the home.
A comfortable dual-aspect living room centers around an inviting fireplace with a log burner, offering a cosy retreat with traditional detailing.
To the rear of this open plan living sits two versatile rooms currently utilised as a home office but could equally serve as a potential annexe, alongside a contemporary fully tiled shower room and a surprisingly spacious, dedicated utility room complete with stylish wooden worktops, extensive cabinetry with convenient WC and direct external access.
Extending across the rear of the property is the standout feature: An impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and family living area.
Designed for modern living, this expansive space features light tiled flooring, vaulted ceilings overhead, skylights and full-width bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect the interior to the rear garden.
The kitchen itself boasts modern fitted units, incorporating a walk-in larder, integrated high-spec appliances including a Quooker tap and solid walnut surfaces and breakfast bar, while the fluid adjoining layout effortlessly accommodates both formal dining and casual everyday relaxation.
The first floor is thoughtfully arranged off a central landing, hosting four well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish main family bathroom.
Set quietly to the rear, the principal bedroom suite boasts striking vaulted ceilings, painted exposed beams, and double doors opening onto a Juliette balcony overlooking the gardens.
This exceptional bedroom is further enhanced by a dedicated walk-in dressing room lined with sleek, built-in storage and skylight illumination, which flows directly into a contemporary en-suite shower room fitted with a walk-in cubicle, heated towel rail, and modern dark-wood vanity unit.
The remaining bedrooms offer superb versatility and light, each displaying characterful vaulted pitch lines and wooden window blinds.
The second bedroom features fitted wardrobes with a central mirrored panel and bright dual-aspect views, while the additional double bedrooms comfortably accommodate guest arrangements, study setups, or children's quarters.
Serving these bedrooms is a beautifully appointed bathroom, complete with a p-shaped bath with overhead shower, deep slate-effect tiling, vanity storage, and crisp chrome fittings.
Outside Approached via an expansive gravel driveway providing generous off-street parking, the front of the home sets a welcoming tone with its attractive sage-green cladding, rendered accents, and integrated garage.
Side access leads round to a private, sun-drenched rear garden that begins with a paved stone patio sheltered by a stylish fabric sun shade sail, creating an ideal setting for alfresco dining and outdoor relaxation directly off the main living spaces.
Tiered timber flower beds frame the patio, stepping down onto a generous, level lawn bordered by mature trees, established hedging, and a charming wildlife garden pond complete with water lilies.
Completing this exceptional outdoor environment are practical garden outbuildings, including a timber storage shed and an inviting, fully enclosed garden room/summerhouse framed by multi-pane windows and wooden flooring, perfect as a tranquil retreat or garden office space.
