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
Guide Price £200,000 - £215,000 - WELL PRESENTED ONE BEDROOM GROUND FLOOR GARDEN APARTMENT This spacious one-bedroom ground floor garden apartment has so much to offer.
A rare opportunity in the highly sought-after area of Southbourne, the property is ideally positioned just moments from the award-winning sandy beaches and the vibrant high street, offering an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants and local amenities.
Occupying one of just two apartments within the building, this exclusive home benefits from a private garden, allocated off-road parking and a generous kitchen/dining room, making it an ideal purchase for first-time buyers, downsizers or those looking to relocate closer to the coast.
The apartment is accessed via a communal entrance shared with just one other property, creating an immediate sense of privacy. A welcoming entrance hall provides access to all principal rooms.
Positioned at the front of the property, the spacious lounge is flooded with natural light through a large window, creating a bright and inviting living space.
There is ample room for seating and entertaining, while the current owners have also incorporated a practical home office space without compromising the room's proportions.
The generous double bedroom is equally impressive, comfortably accommodating a large bed with plenty of additional floor space.
Fitted wardrobes provide excellent built-in storage, enhancing the room's practicality.
A particular highlight of the property is the spacious kitchen/dining room, which offers an excellent range of worktops, cupboards and appliance space.
The room has a warm and welcoming feel and flows seamlessly into the conservatory, creating an ideal space for everyday living and entertaining.
From here, doors open directly onto the private rear garden. A useful utility area provides space and plumbing for a washing machine, with the gas-fired boiler neatly positioned above.
The accommodation is complemented by a fully tiled bathroom, fitted with a modern shower, wash hand basin and WC.
Outside, the private rear garden is a wonderful extension of the living accommodation, providing the perfect setting for al fresco dining, entertaining or simply relaxing during the warmer months.
The direct access from the conservatory creates an effortless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Further benefits include double glazing, gas central heating and allocated off-road parking.
