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 beautifully presented two-bedroom, two-bathroom split-level maisonette, ideally situated just a short walk from Southbourne Grove’s bustling shopping parade, with its excellent selection of local shops, bars and restaurants.
The stunning clifftops and beaches below are also approximately one mile away.
Originally built in 2006, the development comprises just four properties and the maisonette has been stylishly upgraded by the current owners to create a modern and comfortable home.
The accommodation includes a spacious open-plan lounge and kitchen, with a contemporary kitchen featuring a built-in oven and hob together with an integrated fridge-freezer.
The property benefits from gas central heating, with a new boiler installed in 2026, as well as new flooring fitted in 2025.
There is a modern shower room and WC, in addition to a separate modern bathroom and WC.
The impressive master bedroom measures approximately 18ft x 17ft and benefits from useful storage, while the second bedroom is also a comfortable double.
Externally, the property enjoys a particularly attractive private rear garden measuring approximately 30ft x 30ft.
Professionally landscaped, the garden features a large patio and enjoys a secluded yet sunny aspect, making it an ideal space for outdoor entertaining or simply relaxing.
There is also allocated parking for one car.
With its stylish presentation, generous accommodation, private landscaped garden and excellent position close to Southbourne Grove and the coast, this is an appealing home in a highly convenient location.
