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 along Fairview Lane in Crowborough, this characterful two-bedroom cottage offers deceptively spacious accommodation, a substantial garage and workshop, driveway parking and exciting scope for a new owner to update and personalise the property.
Approached through a mature front garden, the property immediately presents the charm and individuality often associated with an older home.
While the accommodation would benefit from modernisation, the generous proportions and flexible arrangement provide an excellent starting point for someone looking to create a home tailored to their own style.
The front door opens into an entrance hall, with stairs rising to the first floor and access into the principal reception room.
Positioned at the front of the property, this well-proportioned room provides a comfortable space for relaxing and retains a warm, cottage-like feel.
Beyond the reception room is a separate dining room, offering plenty of space for family meals and entertaining.
From here, the accommodation continues into the kitchen and family room, creating an adaptable ground-floor layout with real potential to be reconfigured or opened up, subject to the necessary permissions.
The kitchen is arranged with a range of fitted units and work surfaces, although it now offers an opportunity for replacement and redesign.
The adjoining family room is a particularly useful addition, enjoying windows to multiple aspects and providing a versatile space that could work equally well as a second sitting room, playroom, home office or garden room.
A ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level. Upstairs, the landing leads to two generously sized double bedrooms.
The principal bedroom is positioned at the front of the property, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear. Both rooms offer good proportions and useful storage cupboards.
The bathroom is fitted with a traditional white suite comprising a panelled bath, wash basin and toilet, with a window allowing plenty of natural light into the room.
Outside, the property benefits from a private garden with an established selection of plants and shrubs, providing plenty of scope for a keen gardener to uncover and enhance the space.
One of the property’s most notable features is the substantial garage, measuring approximately 29 feet in length, together with a separate workshop area.
Combined with the driveway parking, this provides an exceptional amount of storage and workspace, making the property particularly appealing to anyone with vehicles, hobbies or plans for a home workshop.
Fairview Lane is conveniently positioned for access to Crowborough’s range of shops, amenities, schools and leisure facilities.
Crowborough railway station provides services towards London, while the surrounding Ashdown Forest and High Weald countryside offer an abundance of scenic walks and outdoor pursuits.
Offered with considerable potential, this distinctive home represents a fantastic opportunity for buyers searching for generous accommodation, valuable garaging and the chance to create something truly their own.
