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
Dating back to the mid-1800s, this charming cottage was originally built to house railway workers for the (then) nearby Wrangaton Station.
Today, it enjoys an incredible south-facing position, taking in delightful rural vistas and perfectly located to access moorland walks, nearby villages and commutable towns further afield.
Description: A large, enclosed patio at the front acts as an ideal seating area to enjoy moorland views or to potter about creating a superb courtyard garden.
Double doors welcome you immediately into the spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room with sliding doors seamlessly inviting you through to the sitting room and south-facing conservatory beyond.
A truly delightful sociable flow to these rooms that blend the chance for relaxation and entertaining in equal measure.
Downstairs also offers a useful utility space with storage and functional family bathroom.
Tucked away behind a door in the sitting room are the stairs to the first floor where there are two double bedrooms and a third, smaller double bedroom as well.
The principal bedroom benefits from a built-in wardrobe.
From the conservatory, sliding doors invite you to the rear garden which is currently laid to patio and lawn with established borders and enclosed by high fencing.
Externally, this cottage benefits from a new roof and redecoration and internally is primed for a full rejuvenation from its next custodian to showcase it truest potential.
With no onward chain, viewings are highly recommended.
