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
Gardeners Cottage is a well-positioned detached rendered cottage, formerly part of the Forcett Hall estate.
The property stands well on the edge of the village with open countryside views and views of the Forcett Hall Dovecote.
The property does require refurbishment throughout yet offers an excellent opportunity to purchase a uniquely positioned spacious home within a generous plot with potential for extension if required.
The property is entered into a useful lobby with separate cloakroom which leads into a utility room which is plumbed for a washing machine.
This leads through into the kitchen which benefits from a good range of fitted units with space for under-counter appliances and a pantry.
The inner hall has a staircase leading up to the first floor and a porch with side door.
The living room offers a generous and light space with dual aspect windows and an open fire which has been blocked off.
The first floor of the property offers three bedrooms, of which 2 are double and the third is a good sized single or home office.
The first floor of the property is finished off by a house bathroom with WC, basin and bath with shower over.
Externally the property is complemented by lawned gardens which wrap around the property offering a spacious, private and rural feel with driveway parking for a number of cars.
Overall, Gardeners Cottages offers a unique opportunity for a buyer to put their own stamp on a detached home with generous gardens which is located on the edge of a rural Yorkshire Estate.
