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
This unique Grade II listed cottage, dating back to circa 1815, occupies a truly stunning rural setting with breathtaking 360-degree views, taking in Pendle Hill, Boulsworth Hill and the surrounding countryside.
Extensively renovated by the current owners whilst retaining a wealth of original character and charm, the property offers versatile 2/3-bedroom accommodation arranged over three floors.
Entering the property on the ground floor, you are welcomed into the impressive kitchen diner, featuring an original stone-flagged floor and an excellent range of fitted wall and base units with complementary work surfaces and splashbacks.
Integrated appliances include a hob with extractor over, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer.
Bifold doors open onto a raised decked seating area, perfectly positioned to enjoy the spectacular rear views, whilst a sash window to the front overlooks the historic canal locks.
From the kitchen, stairs descend to the lower garden floor, with the lounge and study also providing access via original stone steps.
The lower garden floor offers excellent versatility and would make an ideal guest suite or accommodation for dependent relatives.
It comprises a utility/store room with original stone shelving and sink unit, a cosy snug or occasional bedroom, and a stunning bathroom featuring a copper roll-top bath, WC and fitted storage cupboards.
There is also direct access to the rear garden.
The spacious lounge enjoys delightful aspects to both the front and rear, complemented by original ceiling beams and an open fireplace housing a modern Danish wood-burning stove.
A generous study provides additional flexible living space and could easily serve as a third bedroom, home office or hobby room.
To the first floor are two excellent-sized double bedrooms, both benefiting from fitted wardrobes, together with a contemporary four-piece shower room incorporating a vanity wash basin, double shower enclosure with electric shower, WC and bidet.
Externally, the property enjoys generous private gardens to the side and rear, complete with a treehouse and ample off-road parking.
A range of stone-built outbuildings with power and lighting provide excellent storage and could be adapted for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents.
The oil-fired boiler and oil tank are also located externally.
An internal inspection is essential to fully appreciate the exceptional setting, character and versatility this historic home has to offer.
