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
Cottages such as this one don't come to the open market everyday.
In a rural setting above Slaithwaite, being convenient for 3 local villages, and yet having the Peak District National Park on the doorstep.
"The Cottage" is spoiled with an abundance of character features, some of which we have tried to pick out in the images in these particulars.
Offering spacious ground floor living, with ample space for relaxing and entertaining, and having practical spaces too such as a recently fitted boot.
One enters at the front into a welcoming porch which leads into an expansive lounge that features a beautiful fireplace and inset wood burning stove.
Wander through the opening in the corner of the lounge into the good sized dining room - it has plenty of space for a generous dining table.
The kitchen is at the rear of the house and opens conveniently onto a gorgeous sunny patio - perfect for afternoon alfresco dining and barbecues etc.
Fitted in a traditional manner with a range oven and large feature over-mantle, the kitchen is attractive and suits the house perfectly.
A lovely modern boot room sits off the kitchen and provides storage as well as space for laundry appliances. From here one can access the convenient ground floor w.c./shower room.
On the first floor one will find a landing that connects to the three bedrooms (2 double and 1 single). There is also a superb newly installed bathroom with well chosen tiling and stylish decor.
Outside, there is a cottage garden to the front of the house, and parking for two cars. The house is located in a small hamlet with well kept surroundings and a shared driveway.
The rear garden is a delight. A large patio extends across the back of the house, and there is an established lawned garden with borders, shrubs and plantings.
Some lovely steps with feature walling meander up the garden shed which provides useful storage for garden tools etc. Slaithwaite is a fabulous village with an industrial heritage.
Served by both a trans-Pennine railway connecting to Leeds and Manchester as well as the trans-Pennine canal.
There are places to eat out and socialise, local shops and businesses, a local supermarket and convenient access to the M62 motorway network.
It is an excellent location for both local buyers and business travellers. Known for it's strong community spirit and welcoming nature, there are many things to enjoy in Slaithwaite.
In all, this is a beautiful and comfortable home, in a much sought after locale, and a personal viewing is imperative to avoid disappointment.
