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
Farm Cottage is a deceptively spacious Grade II listed, five bedroom mid terrace cottage, positioned in the heart of the sought after village of Knapton, offering beautifully balanced accommodation arranged over three floors together with generous gardens, garage and driveway parking.
The ground floor opens into a large front living and dining room, a welcoming space with excellent natural light and a log burning stove forming a central focal point, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
To the rear is a characterful breakfast kitchen fitted with a bespoke solid wood Neptune kitchen in a classic country style, providing ample storage and workspace while enjoying views over the garden.
Completing the ground floor is a useful utility room and a separate wc, discreetly positioned to the rear of the property.
To the first floor are three well proportioned bedrooms, including the main bedroom to the front which benefits from its own ensuite shower room.
A modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms on this level, finished in a contemporary style that complements the period character of the cottage.
The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, both with vaulted ceilings that enhance the sense of space and light.
These rooms feature exposed timber joists, an exposed brick chimney breast and picture windows, creating particularly atmospheric and character rich spaces ideal for guest bedrooms, home working or additional family accommodation.
Externally, the property enjoys a charming front garden enclosed by railings, adding to its kerb appeal.
To the rear is a large garden offering excellent outdoor space, together with a garage and driveway which are accessed via the neighbouring cul de sac, a valuable and practical feature for a village centre location.
Farm Cottage combines period charm with generous accommodation and practical outdoor space, all within easy reach of local amenities and excellent transport links to York.
