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
Description Set within approximately 1.4 acres of established gardens and paddock, this impressive four-bedroom barn offers a rare combination of character, scale and versatility in a wonderfully private semi-rural setting in Pilgrims Hatch.
Extending to over 3,600 sq ft and arranged predominantly across a single level, the property has an immediate sense of space.
Generous proportions, flexible reception rooms and an excellent connection with the surrounding grounds make this a particularly appealing home for both family life and entertaining.
A welcoming entrance hall introduces the accommodation and leads through to the substantial lounge and dining room.
Forming the natural heart of the house, this impressive space provides ample room for both relaxed seating and more formal dining, while enjoying views across the gardens.
The adjoining kitchen is well appointed with an extensive range of storage and work surfaces and is complemented by a separate utility room, WC and useful additional storage.
One of the property's most distinctive features is the additional living and bar area.
Generously proportioned and overlooking the grounds, it creates a superb setting for entertaining, evening drinks or simply relaxing away from the principal reception room.
A further playroom provides yet more flexibility and would work equally well as a home office, snug, games room or hobby space. The bedroom accommodation is equally well considered.
The principal suite is particularly spacious, incorporating its own dressing area and en suite bathroom to create a private retreat within the house.
Three further well-proportioned bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, providing comfortable accommodation for family members and guests alike.
Outside is where the property becomes especially compelling.
The grounds extend to approximately 1.4 acres and combine established gardens, sweeping lawns and a paddock, creating a wonderful sense of openness and privacy.
There is considerable scope for outdoor entertaining, recreation and equestrian or lifestyle use.
A substantial garage is accompanied by additional detached outbuildings, offering valuable storage and workshop space together with intriguing potential for alternative uses or conversion, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents.
Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains exceptionally well placed for everyday amenities and commuting.
Brentwood town centre is within easy reach, while Shenfield provides an excellent selection of shops, restaurants and rail connections, including Elizabeth line services towards central London.
The A12 is also readily accessible, providing convenient road links towards London and the wider Essex countryside.
Offering more than 3,600 sq ft of accommodation, approximately 1.4 acres, extensive outbuildings and a highly adaptable layout, this is an unusual opportunity to acquire a substantial country-style home where space, privacy and accessibility come together exceptionally well.
