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.

The lounge exudes warmth and character with its large fireplace and fuel burner, creating an inviting space for relaxation.
The kitchen is both practical and charming, offering a convenient understairs pantry store, while the bathroom includes a useful utility cupboard (currently housing a washing machine) for added convenience.
Both bedrooms are generously proportioned doubles, providing comfortable accommodation and ample space for furnishings.

Residents also enjoy access to a communal lawned garden, patio area and a brick store (ideal for additional storage).
