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
This delightful period cottage retains a number of period features and has been comprehensively extended by the current owner to create a good-sized home and comes to the market for the first time in well over 40 years.
The property is assessed through an external entrance porch through to the main living room.
This cosy room has dual aspect stone mullion windows to the front and side, exposed ceiling beams, a feature fireplace, stairs to the first floor and a door to the inner hallway.
This hallway has doors to the utility and kitchen.
The utility has a window to the side, wall wall-mounted boiler, W.C, storage cupboards and a sink, whilst the well-equipped kitchen has a number of attractive shaker-style wall and base units, a ceramic sink and built-in appliances which include a fridge and electric oven and hob, as well as space for a dishwasher.
The kitchen is open plan to the spacious dining area, creating a large and social kitchen-dining room.
The dining area is naturally light with a mixture of windows, patio doors and a bar door giving access to the garden. The first floor has a landing and doors to all upstairs rooms.
This includes the main bedroom to the front with fantastic a-framed roof trusses, stone mullion window and wardrobes with hanging and shelving space.
The second and third bedrooms are both located to the rear overlooking the garden, and there is a separate bathroom and cloakroom on either side of the landing.
Externally, there are front and rear gardens. The front is enclosed behind a small wall and laid with stone chippings.
The rear is well over a hundred feet in length, with a patio off the dining area, and is initially enclosed by a stone wall and fencing with a stone wall to the level of the garden which is laid mainly to lawn along its length.
There are a number of established trees, bushes and shrubs, garden sheds, a summer house, further patio areas and vegetable plot, an absolute delight throughout. There is also parking for one car.
