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
Great Gable Cottage is a substantial detached house, occupying an elevated position in a site extending to approximately 0.25 of an acre.
The property boasts lovely views and comes with a separate detached garage building set back from the main house across a generous tarmac driveway, providing additional parking and turning.
The ground floor of the main house centres around an impressive open-plan breakfasting kitchen, fitted with sleek cream gloss cabinetry, a central island, and a range-style cooker, flowing into a casual dining and seating area lined with bookshelves.
Beyond this sits a separate, more formal dining room, a spacious living room with a log burning stove, and a versatile office or snug.
A utility room and downstairs WC add further practicality, while a bright, tiled conservatory-style garden room with French doors leads out to the rear terrace, filling the space with natural light.
Upstairs, the first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms served by two bathrooms, arranged off a spacious central landing.
Outside, the house is approached via a curving driveway framed by stone retaining walls and steps leading up to the entrance, with the detached garage positioned to one side.
To the rear, a paved patio provides an ideal spot for outdoor seating and dining while taking in the incredible views, stepping down into a well-established garden with neat lawns, mature hedging, with a a mixture of shrubs and some wildflower areas.
