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
Located in a wonderful rural position with field views to the front and rear, is this substantial four bedroom chalet bungalow sitting on an overall plot of more than 1/2 acre (STLS).
Offering an over incredible accommodation over two floors of over 4,500 sqft.
The main living space is all on the ground floor with the spacious and welcoming hallway, hinting at the quality of accommodation on offer.
To your left double doors open to an inner lobby off of which is the sleeping accommodation for the house.
The main bedroom is at the back of the property and boasts a wonderful walk-in dressing room and a sumptuous en-suite bathroom fitted with a modern high-end four-piece suite.
All three of the other bedrooms are double rooms, two of which also enjoy well-appointed en-suite shower rooms.
Behind the hallway the spacious living room offers the perfect place to unwind and has nearly full-width bi-fold doors opening to the garden.
An open access leads to the dining room that, in turn, leads to the modern kitchen that is the perfect place for anyone who loves entertaining.
The kitchen offers everything the budding chef might need including a wonderful Rangemaster cooker in the central island unit.
Off the kitchen there is a good-sized utility room with a door leading out into the garden.
Additionally, off the hallway there is another modern bathroom and a personal door that leads to the integral double garage.
As if that is not enough, stairs from the first-floor lead up to the huge loft room, that measures over 50' x 30' and offers an incredible opportunity to add more accommodation or a cinema room, gym or simply more bedrooms.
Off the loft room there is also a study and walk-in access to further loft space.
Externally the front garden is laid mainly to lawn with a gravel driveway providing off-street parking for several vehicles.
A side gate provides access to the rear garden, that commences with a paved patio seating area, with the garden, again, mainly laid to lawn planted with a range of trees and shrubs and backing onto open farmland.
