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
NO ONWARD CHAIN At the end of a long, private and gated driveway sits Tythe Barn, a magnificent three bedroom detached house.
The property has a characterful blend of modern convienence and timeless charm creating a farmhouse style home with a gorgeous wrap around lawn garden.
As you step into the inviting interior, you are greeted by a large light filled hallway with doors to the reception rooms and L-shaped staircase.
The sizeable dual-aspect lounge is a welcoming space for all the family complete with working woodburner and restored hardwood flooring, giving off a warm and classic atmosphere, an exceptional room for entertaining.
To the rear of the house is the kitchen/breakfast room with an enviable larder cupboard, intergrated dishwasher and space for a Range style cooker and washing machine.
The dining room is bright and airy with enough space for an eight seater table and chairs, views out to the front garden and driveway, as well as double doors to the sunroom that leads out to the formal gardens.
Also on the ground floor is the WC and a courtesy door to the garage, making this both an enjoyable and useful cosy space.
On the first floor, the open galleried landing is certainly a show stopper, with light streaming in from the window bouncing off the neutral tones with a well placed centre piece drop light bringing forward those modern touches.
The principle bedroom has a large window to the front and en-suite shower room comprising double walk-in rain shower, basin, toilet and tall heated towel rail.
From the landing doors lead to Bedrooms 2 & 3, both of which can accomodate a double bed and furniture, the family bathroom and a useful storage cupboard.
The gardens wrap around Tythe Barn providing an area of paved patio, flat lawns surrounded by mature trees and shrubs, a raised shaded garden as well as tarmac driveway that leads up to the garage (power and light connected) providing parking for 4+ cars.
Tythe Barn has been lovingly renovated, refurbished and redecorated in recent years but the current owners, who use this spacious and comfortable property as a much-loved second home having family in North Devon.
The ample outdoor spaces are just as enticing and flexible as the interior and have too been updated in recent years removing overgrown trees and adding timber borders and raised beds.
LOCATION The village of Fremington offers a range of amenities from schooling, doctors surgery and take away’s to the Fox & Hound’s pub, Co-op, hairdressers and church, all within few minutes walking distance.
Looking for a property with nice walks nearby, then this is for you, just a stroll away is a wooded lane down to the popular Fremington Quay & Cafe that adjoins the famous Tarka Trail.
