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
The Property: Situated along the main road through West Alvington, 2 Stone Cottages is a quintessential Devon home, full of charm and character, yet thoughtfully updated to suit modern living.
The property is entered directly into a cosy yet bright reception room, enjoying a dual aspect that allows natural light to flow through the space.
With built-in storage and practical, easy-to-maintain flooring, this room offers a welcoming introduction to the home and a comfortable place to relax.
From here, an inner hallway provides access to the first floor, along with a versatile additional room currently used for storage.
Shown as a dining room on the floorplan, this space would lend itself equally well as a study or utility area, depending on requirements.
The kitchen sits to the rear of the property and is arranged in a classic galley style.
It offers space and plumbing for a washing machine, room for a fridge freezer, and an electric oven with hob and extractor over.
A bright and sunny room, it enjoys direct access out to the courtyard and garden beyond.
Upstairs, the cottage offers two well-proportioned double bedrooms, positioned to the front and rear respectively.
Both rooms are comfortable in size, with the rear bedroom enjoying a pleasant outlook over the garden.
A particular advantage of this property is the reconfigured layout, allowing for a modern bathroom on the first floor.
Finished to a good standard, it comprises a walk-in shower, WC, basin and heated towel rail. Externally, the property continues to impress.
Immediately adjacent to the house is a small, sunny courtyard — perfect for a morning coffee — while a pathway leads down to a larger garden area.
With a substantial shed already in place, this space offers excellent potential for those looking to create a more established garden or productive outdoor area.
The property would benefit from further updating throughout, such as requiring new flooring throughout, re-skimming of walls, redecoration throughout and general cosmetic improvements.
Significant improvements including replacement windows and works to the rear roof have already been completed, making it an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers or those looking to put their own stamp on a character home.
