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.

On the first floor, there are two further double bedrooms. The home sits on a generous plot and benefits from several outbuildings, including a polytunnel that is in excellent condition.
The roof was renewed in 2023, and the home benefits from gas central heating and double glazing throughout.

The lounge provides ample floor space and well-presented period features, including a multi-fuel stove and exposed beam ceilings, adding to the traditional character of the home.
The kitchen/diner is modernly fitted, featuring a range of wall and base-mounted units, excellent worktop space and integrated appliances, including an oven and gas hob.
