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
Presenting an immaculate Grade II listed cottage situated in the highly sought-after village of Great Chesterford, offering a masterful blend of 15th-century history and uncompromising modern living.
Believed to date from 1460, this exceptionally well-maintained property welcomes you into a handsome dining room featuring exposed oak beams and an open fire, flowing seamlessly into a light, spacious sitting room equipped with an excellent Clearview log burner.
The contemporary kitchen is a practical and inviting space, complete with solid oak worktops, a Falcon Range electric oven, and a recently installed Worcester Bosch boiler.
The ground floor is completed by a clever utility space tucked beneath the stairs and a five-piece family bathroom boasting a freestanding claw-foot bath and a large walk-in shower.
Upstairs, three generously proportioned bedrooms defy the low ceilings typical of this provenance, with the roomy principal bedroom exhibiting handsome exposed oak timbers.
Externally, the property features a pretty, southwest-facing walled courtyard garden with an attractive decorative colonnade and a small stone terrace perfectly suited for low-maintenance al fresco dining.
Crucially for time-poor families, while the private garden is easily managed and requires minimal upkeep, the village itself acts as an expansive extension of your home; the property sits opposite the primary school and is merely a short walk from the community field, tennis courts, and children's playground.
