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
Very attractive 3 bedroom cottage, tucked away towards the far end of this quiet, well hidden cul de sac, with the benefit of spectacular views over open countryside.
Various aesthetic works required, offering the opportunity for a buyer to add their own finishing touches.
NO CHAIN Oak Cottage From the main entrance hall, which benefits from a good level of natural light provided by windows to front and rear, and from which there is also a staircase rising to first floor, with doorways leading off to several of the principal rooms, including the sitting room, which comprises woodburner, with exposed beams to walls and ceiling, plus door to front, with windows either side which also overlook the front of the property.
The kitchen comprises a range of wall, base and drawer units, as well as 1½ bowl ceramic sink unit with mixer taps and splashback tiling, plus integral fridge, freezer, hob, oven and extractor hood, with plumbing for washing machine.
Within the kitchen there is a choice of oil or solid fuel woodburning boilers, either of which can heat the same radiators.
Leading off from the kitchen the dining room can be found, which features a mixture of stripped wood and brick flooring, as well as beams to walls and ceiling, plus window and French doors, which overlook and open out onto the rear garden, from which there are spectacular views across open farmland.
Also at ground floor level there can be found a third bedroom, which benefits from two windows to side, as well as built-in storage cupboard and door to en suite wet room comprising low flush wc, wash handbasin and shower, plus tiled walls and floor.
At first floor level there can be found two bedrooms, both of which are interlinked, with both featuring exposed floorboards.
Also, at first floor level there is a family bathroom, comprising standalone bath with centrally set taps, plus shower over.
Vanity wash handbasin, low flush wc, tiled flooring and part tiled walls, as well as full length and full height fitted wardrobe with double sliding doors, behind which can be found the hot water tank.
Outside The front boundary of the property is enclosed by high hedging giving Oak Cottage a high degree of privacy, to the side of which there is a driveway which provides parking.
To the rear there is a turning area, beyond which is the garage and workshop, as well as an impressive garden with an overall size in the region of 0.17 acre (sts).
The property is perfectly situated at the far end of a quiet no through road, therefore offering a high degree of privacy which is only further enhanced by the wealth of character and wonderful views it affords over open countryside, Although it should also be noted that work is required to bring the property up to a finished standard but which also has the added touch of recent history to make this even more unique being that the property was once owned by Sir Alf Ramsey.
