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
Nestled in an elevated position at the heart of the picturesque village of Englishcombe, Chapel House is a charming semi-detached home that effortlessly blends period character with modern comfort.
Its handsome façade of random stone is adorned with Georgian-style sash windows, while a front terrace framed by climbing roses, clematis, and summer planting offers a fragrant, sunlit spot to enjoy sweeping views across the valley.
The stone porch opens into a welcoming entrance lobby, leading into the first reception room, flowing naturally into a delightful sitting room where a bay window overlooks the front terrace, a beamed ceiling adds warmth, and a central wood-burning stove provides an inviting focal point.
A winding staircase descends to a useful cellar, ideal for storage. Also off the hallway, there is another room, a home office or playroom with its own independent access to the side of the property.
The ‘country style’ kitchen is a true heart of the home, featuring a tall sloping ceiling and large doors giving direct access to the garden.
With space for a family dining table, it’s a natural gathering place, perfect for hosting summer meals that spill out onto the adjoining dining terrace.
There is a separate utility area with extra storage and positioned for ease just off the kitchen.
Upstairs, three charming double bedrooms enjoy views either over the landscaped garden or the rolling countryside beyond, complemented by a stylish and well-appointed family bathroom.
Occupying the second floor, the principal bedroom is a tranquil retreat, with exposed A-frame beams, abundant light from both a front window and a large roof light, and a private en-suite shower room.
Although not huge, the garden has been thoughtfully and practically designed with areas for dining, playing or planting - currently there are productive fruit trees and raised vegetable beds.
There is also a summer house which is currently being used as a gym.
A gravel driveway to the side provides parking for two vehicles, with double gates opening to a useful side terrace and storage area.
Englishcombe is a highly desirable village just 3.4 miles from Bath city centre and Bath Spa Railway Station, offering the perfect balance of rural tranquillity and city convenience.
Surrounded by beautiful countryside and within easy reach of Bath’s renowned schools, boutique shopping, fine dining, theatres, and cinemas, Chapel House provides an enviable lifestyle in one of the area’s most sought-after settings.
