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 Courtyard and its Opportunities Stables Cottage is within the Pellingbridge Courtyard of three former farm buildings that have been converted into stylish and modern dwellings, all of which are for sale – The Coach House, Stables Cottage and Rose Cottage.
Stables Cottage was previously the stables for the working farm and converted in 2019.
The cottage is surrounded by pleasant countryside ideal for walking, cycling and riding, and further benefits from lovely far-reaching rural views from the kitchen.
The cottage, currently rented, is single storey and offers about 1075 sq ft of space, making it ideally suited as a rental property, a second home or for a professional couple or single homeowner.
When combined with the purchase of The Coach House it would be ideal for multigenerational living.
Internally the cottage is immaculately presented with a duck egg blue farmhouse-style kitchen and a bright and modern open plan living area with built-in cabinetry.
There are two good-size bedrooms both with fitted wardrobes and en suite facilities, as well as a separate WC, utility cupboard and storage in the entrance hall.
Stables Cottage has excellent security with CCTV and Intruder alarm systems.
Outside The entrance to the cottage is delightful, under a timber and brick pergola with a border of mature shrubs to either side and climbers above.
There are two dedicated parking spaces to the front of the cottage and further visitor parking.
The rear garden is accessed via French windows from the living area and is designed in a low-maintenance courtyard style with a mature hedge border and an area of south facing decking for garden furniture.
There is a further private patio accessed from the hall and perfect for breakfast in the sun.
