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
Offered for sale with no onward chain, this charming two-bedroom cottage is tucked away in the little-known mews of Clifton Terrace, just off Ingatestone High Street.
Boasting both front and rear gardens, the property’s private south-westerly facing courtyard garden is a true suntrap, perfect for outdoor relaxation.
Upon entering the cottage, the ground floor features two charming reception areas, separated by exposed wooden beams that enhance the character of the home.
The front reception room, currently used as a beautiful dining space, includes a striking stone fireplace, while the rear reception room offers a cozy sitting area with a red brick open fire-perfect for winter evenings.
Towards the back of the cottage, the kitchen is fitted with a range of cupboards and includes an integrated oven and gas hob.
A doorway leads directly to the rear courtyard garden, which is block-paved and provides an ideal setting for enjoying warm weather.
Additionally, the rear garden grants access to a ground-floor utility room and W/C, which could potentially be integrated into the main living space, as seen in other properties (subject to planning permission).
Upstairs, the first floor comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both benefiting from built-in storage.
The front bedroom features an extensive range of fitted wardrobes, offering ample storage space. The rear bedroom provides access to the first-floor bathroom, which includes a bath, sink, and toilet.
Some neighbouring properties have reconfigured this space to also incorporate a separate shower. Throughout the property, you’ll find UPVC windows and doors.
The front garden offers additional outdoor space, while the rear garden includes gated access.
Clifton Terrace is just a stone's throw from Ingatestone’s vibrant High Street, with its array of shops, cafés, and restaurants.
The village’s mainline railway station is also within easy walking distance (approximately 5-10 minutes) and offers direct access to central London.
While the property does not have allocated parking, residents’ permits are available for High Street parking, and private parking arrangements can be made in one of the nearby car parks.
