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 3/4 bedroom detached chalet bungalow situated on a circa 1/4 acre plot.
Occupying a generous plot of approximately a quarter of an acre, this detached three/four bedroom chalet bungalow presents a unique opportunity to acquire a home with immense potential in a sought-after setting.
Having remained in the same ownership for more than six decades, properties of this nature are rarely available to the open market.
The accommodation is both spacious and versatile comprising of a lounge with feature fireplace, separate dining room, kitchen, family bathroom, separate cloakroom, and three ground floor bedrooms, one of which could equally serve as a home office or study.
The first floor is dedicated to a particularly impressive principal bedroom with useful eaves storage.
While the property would now benefit from modernisation and needs updating throughout, it offers buyers the perfect blank canvas to create a superb family home tailored to their own requirements.
There is also excellent scope for extension or reconfiguration, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Externally, the property enjoys mature gardens and grounds approaching a quarter of an acre, providing a wonderful degree of privacy and ample space for keen gardeners, families, or those seeking outdoor entertaining space.
A detached garage and driveway parking further enhance the appeal.
Combining flexible accommodation, a substantial plot, and exceptional potential, this is a genuinely rare opportunity for purchasers looking to create a long-term home in a highly desirable location.
Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the potential on offer.
Situated within the sought-after village of Sandleheath, this property enjoys a peaceful semi-rural setting whilst remaining conveniently placed for everyday amenities.
The village itself offers a strong sense of community, with scenic countryside walks and access to the nearby New Forest National Park.
The market town of Fordingbridge is just a short drive away, providing a range of independent shops, cafés, pubs, supermarkets and excellent schooling.
Commuters are well catered for, with easy access to Salisbury, Ringwood and Bournemouth.
