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 fantastic opportunity to acquire a rundown character property on a plot in excess of a third of an acre in this rural setting.
We believe that the original cottage dates back to around the 15th century and has been subject to additions and extensions over the years, now totalling over 2000 square feet of accommodation with 3/4 bedrooms plus a large loft and a large garage.
It is our understanding that the most recent extension was around 1980 and the property now requires substantial modernisation.
There is a large brick built garage under a pitched roof with additional storeroom and gardeners WC at the rear, and a generous driveway and parking at the front.
It is set on a fairly busy road but with countryside in front and behind.
The property is sold as seen and buyers will need to make their own enquiries regarding services, although we believe that drainage is via a septic tank and there is mains electricity and water.
There are solar panels on the garage roof but no supporting paperwork.
This is the first time that this property has been on the market for many years and viewing is essential to understand the accommodation and location. Vacant. Keys.
