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 spacious family home set within approximately 12 acres of beautiful gardens and ancient woodland, enjoying complete privacy and far-reaching rural views.
Originally built in the 1960s and thoughtfully extended over subsequent years, the property offers over 4,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation, surrounded by attractive gardens and mature woodland.
The house is ideally suited for family living, featuring an impressive collection of reception rooms, including a generous sitting room, family room, study, and dining room, which provide ample space for both entertaining and everyday life.
On the first floor are six bedrooms and three bathrooms, each enjoying views across the surrounding countryside or woodland.
Having evolved over time through sympathetic extensions, the property offers considerable scope for further enlargement or reconfiguration, subject to the necessary planning consents, allowing future owners the opportunity to create a home tailored to their own requirements.
Approached via a long, sweeping driveway through its own woodland, Moonrakers occupies a magnificent and secluded position in the heart of the countryside.
