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
Townend Cottage, Townend Close, Croughton The Home Townend Cottage is a newly constructed, architect-designed bungalow offering luxurious single-level living on the edge of the sought-after village of Croughton.
Designed with modern life in mind, the layout combines generous proportions with elegant finishes and meticulous attention to detail throughout.
At the heart of the home is a stunning Shire kitchen and dining area, featuring a central island breakfast bar, grey cabinetry, sleek light fittings, and integrated appliances, including a wine fridge.
The open-plan layout creates a welcoming hub for family life and entertaining, while glass doors ensure light flows freely through the space.
A spacious utility room offers additional appliance space and storage, with a glass door opening onto the patio.
The large living room is bright and inviting, with French doors opening onto the rear patio and garden, offering a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
There are four generous double bedrooms, two of which enjoy their own modern en-suite shower rooms.
Both the en-suite bathrooms and family bathroom benefit from fitted storage with heated mirrors and shaving points. The cloakroom features quality fittings including a vanity sink.
Comfort and efficiency are key, with underfloor heating throughout, individually zoned controls in each room, and an air source heating system supported by 3-phase electrics for future-ready performance.
A large storage cupboard and loft access (with ladder) provide useful additional storage.
The Garden & Garage The private rear garden is deceptively large, featuring a newly laid patio and lawn, fully enclosed by a well-maintained fence. There are outdoor taps and electrical sockets.
To the front, double electric gates with a manual override open onto a block-paved driveway leading to a large double garage with an electric door, lighting, and plant room containing the air source and hot water systems.
It is also partly boarded for extra storage. Outside lighting is set on a timer, adding evening ambience and security.
The Location Nestled within a quiet cul-de-sac, Townend Cottage enjoys a peaceful and private position in the desirable village of Croughton.
The village offers a friendly community, local amenities, and scenic countryside walks, while being ideally placed for access to Brackley, Banbury, Bicester and the M40 — offering the perfect balance of rural charm and modern convenience.
