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
We are delighted to bring to the market this beautifully presented stone end of terrace cottage, one of just five properties set within an attractive position overlooking the recreation ground and surrounding countryside.
A small front garden separates the cottage from the road, with the front door opening into a welcoming hallway and a spacious living room.
This charming room features high ceilings, a window to the front elevation, a log burner, and a deep understairs storage cupboard.
To the rear, the modern, well equipped kitchen is in excellent condition and includes an integrated fridge/freezer, oven and hob, gas boiler, double glazed window, and a double glazed door leading out to the garden.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to the main bedroom positioned at the front of the property.
This room benefits from built in wardrobes and enjoys superb views across the playing fields towards the countryside beyond.
At the rear is a second double bedroom along with a high quality bathroom fitted with a shower over the bath.
The property further benefits from gas fired central heating, double glazing throughout, and high quality floor coverings.
Externally, there is side pedestrian access leading to the gardens at both the side and rear of the cottage.
Notably, the property includes an additional section of ground to the left side (as viewed from the front) where a summerhouse and a raised terrace have been positioned to take full advantage of the setting and the excellent views.
The rear garden is larger than expected, laid to lawn with well stocked flowerbed borders, trellis and fenced boundaries, and a garden shed.
Its elevated position provides lovely views across the surrounding countryside.
