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
Sitting Room ** Kitchen ** Rear Hall/Boot Room Bathroom ** Two Bedrooms Gas Central Heating ** Double Glazing ** Rear Garden EPC Rating D Description Westgate is one of the oldest parts of Pickering that as the name suggests forms the Western end of the A170, Thirsk to Scarborough Road that travels through it.
Lined on either side by a mixture of property types from character cottages, period town houses and some new dwellings it is a short, comfortable walk to all the shops and services of the market place.
No.128 has a southerly front aspect and is a stone under pantile roof, mid terace cottage. Historically it will have consisted of a 2 up, 2 down with an outside WC.
Thankfully a latterly added ground floor extension has given the cottage a ground floor bathroom.
The accommodation is over two floors with a sitting room to the front of the cottage linking to a recently fitted kitchen.
Beyond there is a rear hall/boot room with storage space, housing the boiler and stairs rise from here accessing two the bedrooms.
To the rear of the cottage, on the ground floor there is a newly fitted bathroom.
The cottage has a quite surprisingly large garden that starts with a patio area adjoining the property and stepping up onto an L shaped lawn.
