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
An unbelievable opportunity to purchase this 'one-of-a-kind' Shropshire home with lifestyle and income potential.
The Hollow is a striking country residence set amidst the unspoilt beauty of the Shropshire Hills, offering a unique combination of character, lifestyle and entrepreneurial opportunity.
With origins dating back to the 1700s, this remarkable home has been sensitively updated to blend period charm with modern flexibility, creating a property that is as inviting as it is versatile.
The Hollow is a home of substance and character, in a mesmeric location and awaits the discerning buyer seeking something truly special.
The principal residence is overflowing with features that capture the imagination: Tiled floors, arches, exposed ceiling beams, chimney breasts and stone walls.
A Belfast sink with antique mixer taps and a range-style cooker add to the appeal of the family kitchen, complemented by a bright garden room and sun lounge, both bathed in natural light.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys a triple aspect with superb views, en-suite facilities and built-in storage.
Two further double bedrooms complete the first floor, serviced by a stylish family bathroom.
Beyond the main house lies an ancillary building, arranged over three storeys, which lends itself perfectly to flexible use or income generation.
The lower ground floor incorporates a hobby/craft room.
The ground floor offers a garage and workshop with a surrounding balcony and the upper floor is currently arranged as a self-contained holiday let with its own private 'step-on' balcony – an enviable retreat with proven income potential.
Set within generous gardens and grounds, The Hollow is surrounded by rolling countryside, yet enjoys excellent connections to Shrewsbury, Church Stretton and key routes further afield.
This is a property that offers not only a distinctive home, but also a lifestyle where relaxation and opportunity meet in equal measure.
