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
Miles & Barr are delighted to present this well presented five/six-bedroom semi-detached period family home, ideally situated in the heart of the ever popular Minnis Bay.
Believed to have been constructed in 1890, this unique residence seamlessly combines an abundance of original charm and character with spacious, versatile accommodation arranged over three floors.
The property is entered via an impressive entrance hall which immediately showcases the home's period features.
The ground floor comprises a generous 15ft bay fronted lounge, a separate dining room enhanced by distinctive rounded turret windows, a well appointed kitchen/breakfast room with ample space for family dining, a separate utility room and a convenient ground floor WC.
In addition, a further reception room accessed from the dining room provides excellent flexibility, making an ideal home office, playroom or occasional bedroom if required.
Internal access to the garage is also available from this level.
The first floor offers three well proportioned bedrooms, a contemporary family bathroom fitted with both a corner bath and separate shower cubicle, together with an additional WC.
Occupying the second floor are two further double bedrooms, a modern shower room and an additional versatile room currently utilised for dressing and storage, which could easily serve a variety of purposes.
The property's distinctive turret windows continue throughout each floor, framing delightful westerly views towards Reculver Towers and offering the opportunity to enjoy Thanet's renowned "Turner Sunsets".
Externally, the property benefits from a private, westerly facing rear garden, thoughtfully landscaped for ease of maintenance and providing the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining.
The garden is enclosed by wall and fence boundaries, incorporates a hot tub and enjoys gated rear access.
To the front, there is access to an exceptionally generous garage measuring approximately 22'7" in length, offering ample space for secure parking, storage or workshop use.
In our opinion, this exceptional home would be ideal for a growing family seeking generous living accommodation within one of Birchington's popular coastal locations.
With the beach at Minnis Bay just a short stroll away, together with its popular cafés, restaurants and scenic promenade, this truly is a rare opportunity.
Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size, character and versatility this wonderful home has to offer.
