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
Rowley Cottage was built in the early 1990s from local stone, on the site of a former farm building.
A retained wall dated 1867 adds historical character, and the property is set within the southern Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering stunning valley views.
The ground floor comprises a bright and spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, with a utility room accessed directly from the kitchen.
The space is naturally light and provides ample room for daily living and entertaining.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate living room, which leads into a garden room overlooking the rear gardens and valley beyond, creating a connected, light-filled space.
A separate WC completes the ground floor. On the first floor, the principal bedroom includes an en suite bathroom with modern fittings and views over the gardens.
Three further bedrooms are arranged around a separate family bathroom.
All bedrooms include built-in storage and windows positioned to take full advantage of the surrounding valley views, ensuring well-lit and practical accommodation throughout.
At the front, a driveway leads to a double garage. The south-facing rear garden is tiered, with a paved patio, an upper lawn, and a lower lawned section, enclosed by stone walls and fencing.
A shed, greenhouse, and smaller garden areas provide practical and flexible outdoor space. The gardens are arranged for ease of maintenance while taking full advantage of the private valley views.
