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.

YAXHAM The village of Yaxham is situated approximately three miles south of the market town of Dereham and about two miles from the nearest Tesco supermarket.
The Village provides local amenities including the highly rated Ranis Indian Restaurant, a vibrant village hall offering multiple activities across the week for all age groups, together with a pro-active, community focussed Parish Council.
Nearby Mattishall offers Doctor’s Surgery, Chemist, together with local shops and eateries.
The village also benefits from a regular bus service to Norwich City centre via the Norfolk & Norwich Hospital. Further amenities can be found at the nearby town of Dereham.
Nestled in the Brecklands, in the heart of the county, Dereham is a classic country market town and an architectural haven with plenty of Georgian gems set on generous plots, blended with more recent developments.
Today, a twice weekly market, on Tuesdays and Fridays, along with a strong cohort of independent and specialist shops and free parking make the town a fabulous place for an afternoon spent browsing.
Look out for the town’s other historic landmarks which include the Mid-Norfolk Railway, a heritage line which runs 1950s railcars to Wymondham Abbey, Dereham Windmill, a Grade II listed building which was saved from the brink of destruction, and Bishop Bonner’s Cottage, established in 1502 and believed to be the oldest building in town.
