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.

This presents a unique chance for an incoming purchaser to transform an already impressive structure into a bespoke home tailored entirely to their own specification.
The chapel itself is rich in charm and character, with architectural features that lend themselves perfectly to an imaginative and sympathetic conversion.
