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
This may once have been a factory cottage, but there's nothing manufactured about its charm. Three bedrooms, period features, a beautiful renovation, gardens, workshop, parking and no onward chain.
The Property - Believed to date from the early 1800s, 3 Factory Cottages has been beautifully renovated without losing any of its period character.
Combining exposed timbers, stonework and original features with a high-quality finish throughout, it comes to the market with no onward chain.
The ground floor flows naturally between the sitting room, dining room and kitchen, creating comfortable, connected living spaces full of character.
The sitting room centres on a brick-arched fireplace with a log burner beneath a timber mantel and slate hearth.
The dining room enjoys French doors opening onto the front garden, while the kitchen is finished with dark cabinetry, granite worktops and a butler sink beneath the window.
The bathroom reflects the quality of the renovation, with a freestanding-style bath beneath tongue-and-groove panelling, a walk-in shower finished with metro tiling, and a twin ceramic vanity on a timber stand, complemented by exposed stonework and rich, deep tones.
A separate utility room provides space for laundry appliances, with the boiler neatly wall-mounted above.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, each enjoying exposed A-frame beams and characterful sloping ceilings.
The master bedroom benefits from its own ensuite WC tucked beneath the eaves, while the remaining two are comfortable double bedrooms, one fitted with timber wardrobes.
Outside, a paved and gravelled front garden provides an attractive approach to the cottage.
To the rear, a balcony sits above the brook, while the main garden lies beyond the terrace, with a patio and far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
A particularly rare feature for a cottage of this size is the substantial detached shed.
Large enough to accommodate both a garage and workshop, it benefits from power and lighting, making it equally suited to hobbies, storage, a home workshop or secure parking for vehicles and motorbikes.
A log store sits to the rear, while generous off-road parking completes the outside space.
Full of character and thoughtfully renovated throughout, 3 Factory Cottages combines period charm with excellent outside space, generous parking and a substantial workshop, making it a rare find in the heart of the popular village of Trefeglwys.
