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
Description Set in a picturesque position overlooking open countryside, this charming four-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers beautifully presented and highly versatile accommodation, complemented by generous gardens and a wonderful sense of rural tranquillity.
Upon entering via the entrance porch, there is a convenient downstairs cloakroom and shower room to the right, ideal for guests and everyday practicality.
To the left, the heart of the home unfolds into a spacious L-shaped open-plan kitchen/dining room.
Thoughtfully designed for both family life and entertaining, this space boasts ample worktop surfaces, an induction hob, and a traditional oil-fired Rayburn.
Tiled flooring and delightful views over the garden further enhance its appeal.
The sitting room provides a cosy yet characterful retreat, featuring exposed beams and an impressive inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove.
French doors open directly onto the garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.
Additional versatility is offered by a useful utility/breakfast room, which leads through to a further reception room-perfect as a study, playroom, or family room.
Both of these rooms benefit from double doors opening onto the side garden. Upstairs, the first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms.
The two principal bedrooms are positioned to the front and are connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom complete with a corner bath.
Bedrooms three and four are situated at the rear and enjoy truly stunning far-reaching countryside views. A centrally located family shower room serves these rooms.
Externally, the property is surrounded by generous and well-maintained gardens.
To the side, a large garden area features a patio ideal for alfresco dining, a lawn for children to enjoy, raised vegetable beds, a greenhouse, and a garden shed.
To the rear, a second garden offers a further patio seating area, additional storage, and a lawn bordered by mature planting, backing directly onto open fields and maximising the countryside outlook.
The property also benefits from a private driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles, along with a garage featuring an up-and-over door.
