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.

Regent Cottage is an attractive period home dating back to the 18th century, with later extensions, traditional coursed rubble stone elevations and a distinctive thatched roof, sympathetically rethatched in 2020.

The ground floor offers a dining room with fireplace, sitting room, separate snug with open fireplace, and a shaker-style breakfast kitchen featuring a range-style cooker and fireplace.
An inner lobby leads to two further bedrooms, a shower room and a family bathroom, providing excellent flexibility for family living, guests or home working.
To the first floor are two additional bedrooms, including the principal bedroom.
Externally, the property enjoys an enclosed frontage with a timber-gated driveway, providing access to a double garage and detached stone outbuilding.
The south-facing garden features lawned areas and seating spaces, ideal for outdoor entertaining and relaxation, while a private courtyard to the rear provides a further attractive outdoor space.
