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 bustling village is home to a village store / post office, village hall and parish church. The neighbouring village of Stoke Fleming has a highly regarded primary school.
Dartmouth is a beautiful waterside town and is celebrated for its rich maritime heritage, being home to the Britannia Royal Naval College.
The town is one of the jewels in Devon’s crown, offering a wonderful and varied selection of shops, boutiques, galleries, pubs and restaurants, including The Seahorse, which was recently named as ‘Best restaurant outside of London’ by the Food and Travel Reader Awards 2025.
Dartmouth hosts several yearly festivals, including the Dartmouth Royal Regatta, Food Festival, Music Festival and Galleries Week.
Alongside the traditional bakers, butcher and grocer, there are two supermarkets and an M&S Food Hall.
The town is well serviced with a new health and well-being centre, a cinema, a leisure centre and both indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
The River Dart, which flows from Dartmoor, through Totnes and out to sea at Dartmouth, is always a hive of activity, and as a deep-water port, attracts boats from all over the world.
Dartmouth lies within the South Hams and the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, an area famous for its stunning coastline with sandy beaches and hidden coves.
The mainline train station at Totnes runs a regular service to London in 2 hrs 40 mins, and the A38 (M5) is about 13 miles.
THE PROPERTY Situated in front of one of the greatest aspects in South Devon, 2 Hillside enjoys a prime elevated position with uninterrupted views across the neighbouring countryside and out to sea.
This superb Edwardian semi-detached house has been a much-loved home to the current owners for over 40 years.
It has undergone an extensive schedule of works over the years, including a contemporary two storey extension in 2008, which was beautifully designed around the view.
The house offers spacious and well-proportioned accommodation, arranged on 3 floors.
The ground floor comprises a beautifully appointed contemporary kitchen with a large island unit and fitted with a range of high-quality appliances including two De Dietrich ovens, an induction hob, an American-style fridge-freezer, and integrated dishwasher.
Open plan to the kitchen is a light-filled dining room with wall-to-wall trifold doors opening out to the full-width terrace and gardens, and the glorious views beyond.
The sitting room, with open fire, features a bay window, again, overlooking the sea.
The ground floor continues with a utility room / wine store, guest cloakroom, and large bedroom with en suite bathroom, featuring both bath and walk-in shower.
Stairs rise to the first floor where there are a further two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
On this floor is the impressive 3rd main reception room, with wall-to-wall trifold doors opening to a full width covered balcony overlooking the sea, a high vaulted ceiling, and a floating French wood burning stove, with the ability to turn and face its audience, wherever they may be sitting.
There is a study on one side. The second floor offers a generous fourth bedroom with en suite shower room.
OUTSIDE The gardens at 2 Hillside are level and largely laid to lawn, bordered by a post and rail fence with a home-made style offering direct access to the adjoining open countryside, providing direct access to the South-West Coast Path and local beaches beyond.
A gated driveway offers parking for about 4 cars. DIRECTIONS (TQ6 0RL) Follow the A379 from Dartmouth towards Stoke Fleming and Kingsbridge.
Follow the road through Stoke Fleming and as you enter Strete, 2 Hillside will be found a short way along on the left, just before Vicarage Lane which will be seen ahead on your right.
