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
A rare opportunity has arisen to acquire one of the most exceptional residences due to its location, exquisite character and charm.
This four bedroom semi-detached house suits anyone looking to fulfil countryside lifestyle living. Whilst enjoying a rural setting, you are within easy reach of major links and village amenities.
This hidden gem of a sandstone cottage is tucked away on Hillbark Road, just before the historic Hillbark Farm.
The farmhouse was built in 1875 for Septimus Ledward and designed as a 'model' farm for the Hill Bark Estate by famous Chester architect, John Douglas. Nr 1 Roodee Cottages is in a beautiful setting.
It was built in 1878 as a gardener's cottage, forming part of the Estate.
Inside this charming home the accommodation briefly comprises: a hallway; dining room with feature fireplace; a sitting room; kitchen with access to the rear garden, and a separate downstairs W.C.
To the first floor the split level staircase leads you the master bedroom with velux windows and vaulted ceiling, and two further double bedrooms with a refurbished contemporary bathroom and a single bedroom/home office.
Externally there are picturesque front and rear gardens.
To the rear there is a Victorian sandstone shed with tiled pyramid roof, a bright well-built timber shed, and a large, recently built 'Rhino' aluminium greenhouse.
To the front there is off road parking for multiple cars.
