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
Set on a generous plot in a semi rural location along Crewe Road, this 1890's cottage offers a rare mix of character, space and flexibility.
With a substantial layout and multiple reception areas, it’s a home that adapts easily to different needs.
Step through the entrance porch into a welcoming hallway equipped with laundry facilities, along with a ground floor W.C. For added convenience.
The layout offers a choice of living spaces, including a generous lounge featuring traditional slate flooring and log burner.
The lounge is complete with patio doors, bringing in natural light and creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection. There’s also a separate dining room, ideal for mealtimes or entertaining.
The large fitted kitchen includes a Belfast sink, providing a practical space for everyday cooking, while a separate ground floor study offers an area for working from home or managing day-to-day tasks.
A standout feature on the ground floor is bedroom one, complete with its own en-suite and fitted with marble flooring throughout.
This flexible space could also suit guests or multi-generational living, depending on needs.
Upstairs, there are four further bedrooms accessed from a spacious landing area with exposed original beams, offering plenty of room for family life, hobbies or additional workspace.
A family bathroom completes the first floor. Outside, the property continues to impress.
A private entranceway allows the cottage to be nestled away from the roads, including an additional private driveway, situated behind gates and providing parking for multiple vehicles.
The driveway further leads around to a double detached garage, offering excellent storage or workshop potential.
A large garden and patio area, well presented and easy to maintain, gives you a private outdoor area to enjoy.
Well placed for the local amenities of Alsager and Sandbach, transport links and schools, this semi-rural home combines countryside character with everyday convenience.
