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
Offered with no onward chain, a two bedroom cottage in the centre of the favourable village of Chardstock with carport and parking.
EPC Band: G A wonderful opportunity to purchase a two bedroom cottage in the sought after village of Chardstock.
Having been in the same ownership for many years, the property is now ready for modernisation, offering buyers the chance to update and personalise the accommodation to their own taste.
The ground floor features a spacious triple aspect sitting room with a bright and airy feel, an entrance hallway, and the kitchen with a generous amount of storage and space for a table.
The home has a deceptively spacious feel, enhanced by high ceilings throughout. On the first floor, there are two well proportioned bedrooms, the second with built in wardrobes and desk.
The family bathroom is well fitted with a large walk in shower.
The property is prominently located at the heart of this very popular East Devon village located midway between Chard and Axminster, both about 5 miles distant, on the Devon/Somerset/Dorset border.
This is a thriving community with a shop/post office, popular primary school, village hall and Church whilst the traditional market towns of Chard and Axminster both offer a wide range of services with choice of major supermarkets, smaller retailers, educational and leisure facilities.
Axminster benefits from an intercity rail link (London Waterloo) and the World Heritage Jurassic Coast is about 7 miles away at Lyme Regis with its iconic Cobb and harbour.
The Cathedral City of Exeter is about 25 miles to the west with international airport.
