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 substantial detached house sitting in approximately 1/3 of an acre occupying A secluded cotmandene setting .....
Tucked away behind a characterful brick wall and approached through private gates, Estovers occupies a wonderfully secluded position on Cotmandene, one of Dorking's most historic and sought-after settings.
Built in the 1960s and sitting centrally within gardens and grounds of approximately one-third of an acre, the property enjoys an exceptional degree of privacy and tranquility, yet lies just moments from the town centre.
With generous accommodation extending to five bedrooms, three reception rooms and well-balanced family living space, Estovers offers a rare opportunity to create a superb long-term family home in a peaceful setting that combines seclusion with convenience.
A large driveway provides ample parking and leads to a detached double garage.
Internally, the accommodation includes a welcoming entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, study, kitchen/breakfast room with decking immediately accessible, utility room and cloakroom.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite enjoys lovely views across Cotmandene towards the spire of St Martin's Church and beyond to the North Downs, together with a dressing room, extensive fitted wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom.
Bedroom two is particularly generous, whilst three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation.
Outside, the gardens wrap around the house and offer a variety of areas to enjoy throughout the day, creating a wonderful sense of space and privacy.
Bounded on three sides by high brick walls and mature planting, the grounds feel remarkably sheltered and peaceful, providing the perfect backdrop for family life and offering tremendous scope for future enhancement.
