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 great opportunity to acquire two self-contained apartments either as a home and income or to convert back into a four bedroom family home set just a few hundred yards from local clifftops.
Occupying a desirable residential position in Southbourne, this substantial four bedroom detached property offers versatile accommodation within two self-contained apartments and offers an exciting opportunity to convert back into a family home or keep the configuration as it is currently for home and income.
Currently arranged as two self-contained apartments, the property is held under a single title and could be reinstated as one spacious family home, subject to any necessary consents and building regulations being approved.
We understand there are separate gas and electrical supplies for each apartment as well as separate council tax bandings ( Band C ).
We understand a mortgage cannot be obtained via a standard residential mortgage, however there are specialist lenders that will lend as a ' Multi Unit Freehold block ' (MUFB) subject to survey.
The ground floor currently offers two bedrooms, a spacious living room, kitchen and bathroom, providing excellent scope for reconfiguration.
Of particular appeal is the potential to create a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, perfectly suited to modern living and entertaining.
Upstairs, there are a another two double bedrooms, a large living room as well as a family bathroom and kitchen. Once converted, there will be four bedrooms served by a large family bathroom.
The accompanying CGI images demonstrate the property's potential, illustrating how a thoughtful programme of modernisation could transform the accommodation into a stylish contemporary home.
The rear garden offers a blank canvas to landscape to taste and offers a westerly aspect and there is off road parking set to the front of the property.
Situated within easy reach of Southbourne's vibrant high street, independent shops, cafés and restaurants, the property is just a few hundred yards from the area's sandy beaches and beautiful coastal walks.
Please note: CGI images are for illustrative purposes only. Any proposed alterations or improvements are subject to the necessary consents and approvals.
