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
A stylish and contemporary one-off detached home, occupying an elevated position in Crediton and enjoying panoramic southerly views across the town and surrounding Devon countryside towards Dartmoor.
Designed with level access and a reverse-level layout to make the most of its exceptional outlook, this unique property offers bright and spacious accommodation arranged over two floors, with a versatile layout ideally suited to modern living.
The entrance level opens into an impressive open-plan living space, incorporating a high-specification contemporary kitchen with high-end, generously sized integrated appliances, a boiling water tap, generous worktop space and a substantial breakfast bar.
Large sliding glazed doors extend the living area onto a substantial balcony spanning the front of the property, providing an ideal space for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing and enjoying the panoramic countryside views.
Also on this floor is a double bedroom and contemporary shower room, with step-free access from the driveway to the principal living accommodation and landscaped garden, offering flexibility for a variety of living arrangements and making the property particularly appealing to those with reduced mobility.
The lower floor provides three further bedrooms, two with en-suite facilities.
The spacious principal bedroom benefits from a dedicated dressing area, while its en-suite bathroom also enjoys Jack and Jill access from the hallway.
The fourth bedroom offers flexibility for use as a home office, guest bedroom or additional family accommodation.
The hallway also provides access to a passage leading out to the garden, together with a separate utility room.
To the front, a private driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles, complete with an electric vehicle charging point.
A gated entrance leads along a level pathway to the front door, with a useful external storage shed ideal for bicycles, garden equipment and bins.
The landscaped garden includes an area of lawn and a patio, both accessible without steps from the entrance level.
Steps lead down to the lower level of the property, while a pathway connects the garden to the extensive balcony, providing an ideal accessible and private garden space to enjoy the property's elevated position and far-reaching views.
Designed and constructed along Passivhaus principles, with energy efficiency, comfort and simplicity at its heart, the property achieves the highest EPC rating of A.
High-performance Rationel triple-glazed windows and doors, exceptional levels of thermal insulation and airtightness, together with mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR), help maintain comfortable indoor temperatures throughout the year whilst minimising energy consumption.
An efficient air-source heat pump provides heating and hot water, complemented by solar photovoltaic panels and intelligent energy management systems which divert surplus solar electricity to heat water or charge an electric vehicle.
Further sustainable features include an electric vehicle charging point, green roof and rainwater harvesting system supplying an external tap.
Together, these carefully integrated technologies create a comfortable, environmentally conscious home with the potential for exceptionally low running costs.
