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
VC Estates are delighted to welcome to the market this beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached house, tucked away in a quiet and private cul-de-sac in the heart of Herstmonceux.
Built in 2019, this modern home offers spacious and well-presented accommodation, a newly landscaped low-maintenance garden, excellent energy efficiency and the added benefit of solar panels.
The property is available on a shared ownership basis, with the current owners owning a 40% share, which is being offered at £160,000.
A purchaser has the option to purchase a share that suits their circumstances and budget, subject to the terms of the shared ownership scheme, with full 100% ownership also available at £400,000.
This provides a flexible opportunity for buyers looking to get onto the property ladder whilst having the option to increase their ownership in the future.
CONTACT AGENT FOR FURTHER DETAILS AND SERVICE COSTS. The property immediately impresses with its neat frontage and driveway providing parking for two vehicles and EV charging point.
Step through the front door and into a welcoming entrance hall, leading through to a spacious and light-filled lounge/diner with direct access into the landscaped rear garden.
The generous living space is ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining guests.
The adjoining kitchen is well-equipped with a good range of wall and base units, plenty of workspace and designated areas for white goods, whilst a useful downstairs WC completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, each enjoying plenty of natural light.
The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, whilst a modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
The accommodation throughout has been maintained to a high standard, with contemporary fittings and a fresh, neutral décor.
The newly landscaped rear garden has been thoughtfully designed with privacy and low maintenance in mind.
Mature shrubs give the garden a wonderfully established feel, whilst the recently completed landscaping provides a smart and attractive finish.
There is convenient side access, a useful garden shed and several areas suitable for seating, providing the opportunity to enjoy different parts of the garden throughout the day.
Whether entertaining, enjoying the morning sun or simply relaxing outside, this is a garden designed to be enjoyed rather than maintained.
This energy-efficient home, complete with solar panels, offers an excellent combination of modern style, comfort and practicality.
With a bright and airy layout, ample storage and approximately three years remaining on the 10-year build guarantee, it is ready for a new owner to move straight in and enjoy.
