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
A charming, detached stone cottage on the edge of Langport, enjoying ample living accommodation, large garden and garden room, three/four double bedrooms, solar panels, and off-road parking.
The property is accessed from the front via a small porch, leading into the family/dining room, which features a wealth of character, from the flagstone flooring - found across half of the downstairs - to the blue and white Lias stone walls.
The room hosts a multi-fuel burner with timber surround and mantle, whilst a trio of windows allow in plenty of light.
A door leads into the sitting room, again enjoying character features with stone wall, timber beams, and a well with toughened glass cover.
A door leads out to the rear courtyard, joining up with one from the dining area.
A further reception room suits perfectly as a home office, snug, or even as a fourth bedroom, with a traditional cast iron fireplace with stone surround, ample shelving, and an understairs cupboard.
The galley kitchen is fitted in a typical farmhouse aesthetic with a range of glazed wall units and base units with solid wood worktops, tiled splashbacks, electric range with 5-ring hob and extractor over, ceramic sink with drainer, and stable door to rear.
Off the kitchen is a very handy utility room, featuring shelving & cupboards, space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble-dryer, space for a fridge-freezer, and a butlers sink.
There is also a WC downstairs. Upstairs are three double bedrooms, all of which are carpeted and feature a single wardrobe for storage.
The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite, tiled and fitted with shower cubicle, WC and hand basin.
The family bathroom is a generous size, fitted with a bath, separate shower cubicle, pedestal basin, WC and bidet.
OUTSIDE Jasmine Cottage Features an attractive, partly terraced garden which is accessed via a set of several stone steps, resulting in a private space which sees sun all day round.
The principle garden is laid predominantly to lawn, bordered by established plants and shrubs including a rockery framing the edge of the garden nicely.
Two large garden sheds are sited at the back, equipped with power. At the opposite end is a large garden room, laid with a combination of decking and patio, offering a superb, multi-functional space.
Adjacent to this is a gravelled seating area, adding to the variety of the outdoors.
At the bottom of the steps and immediately adjacent to the house is a walkway which doubles as a small courtyard, offering a private seating area with shelter from the sun.
A gate leads through to the front on both sides of the cottage, with off-road parking available for two vehicles.
SITUATION Jasmine Cottage is located on the edge of the popular village of Huish Episcopi, with the sought after Huish Episcopi Academy nearby, close to the attractive market town of Langport.
Huish Episcopi offers local amenities including the hugely popular Rose & Crown (Eli's) Inn, Huish Episcopi Academy & adjoining sports centre with facilities for all ages, Kelways garden centre with popular café, book shop, and the parish church of St.
Mary's.
