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
Enjoying a peaceful semi-rural setting on the edge of the highly regarded village of Cumnor, The Old Nursery is a detached family home offering approximately 2,800 sq ft of versatile accommodation arranged over two floors.
Set within grounds of approximately 0.93 acres, the property has delightful views across open fields to both the front and rear and enjoys an exceptional degree of privacy and tranquillity.
Originally part of a former plant nursery, the property is surrounded by mature gardens and an impressive collection of established fruit trees, including several rare heritage apple varieties, creating a wonderfully productive and picturesque setting.
The ground floor accommodation consists of an entrance porch leading to an entrance hall with a staircase leading to the first floor landing, a spacious reception room with French doors leading to a conservatory with a double-glazed door leading to the rear garden, a fitted kitchen/dining room with steps down to a utility room with French doors to the reception room and a door leading to the rear garden, a double bedroom with an en suite shower room and a door leading to the rear garden, two further double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom.
Adjoining is a garden room with fitted bookshelves, presently used to house a substantial library.
The first floor accommodation consists of a landing with a reception room with access to eaves storage space (this room could be converted into a double bedroom with the addition of a stud wall and door), a principal double bedroom with access to eaves storage space, a second double bedroom with access to eaves storage space and a separate toilet.
There is an outstanding choice of schools in both Oxford and Abingdon, easily accessible by bus, as well as the European School in Culham, connected to Cumnor by its own school bus.
The Cumnor C of E Primary School provides excellent educational opportunities at the heart of the village. Willow Cottage Nursery in Farmoor is a three-minute drive away.
Traffic connections are excellent, with the A420 at Cumnor and the A34 leading to both the M4 and M40 motorways, providing access to London, Heathrow, the Midlands and the West.
Cumnor lies 3 miles from the city centre and train station, from which there is a service to London with a journey time of just under an hour.
