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
The Conifers is a detached, former residential care home positioned within Seal Square in central Selsey, West Sussex. Formerly registered for 20 residents, the home ceased trading in March 2023.
It is located within a residential area, close to the town's amenities and the coast.
Accommodation within The Conifers is arranged to provide resident bedrooms with associated shared facilities and communal living/dining areas typical of a medium-sized care setting.
The layout historically supported older adults, including those living with dementia or mental health conditions, within a domestic-style environment prior to closure.
Gull Rock, the adjoining six bedroom residential building, was used as staff accommodation.
Together, the two buildings present an opportunity for complementary use or asset management strategies, subject to the necessary consents.
Externally, the property sits within a predominantly residential suburb in central Selsey, benefitting from proximity to local services, shops, healthcare, and community facilities, with the coastline and open spaces nearby.
Ground Floor: Entrance area, two lounges, dining room, kitchen, four bedrooms and supporting service areas.
Upper Floors: A further 11 bedrooms, together with shared bathroom facilities and a staff office. A passenger lift serves the main floors of the building.
Gull Rock (Adjoining Building): A separate six bedroom residential property, historically used as staff accommodation, providing additional ancillary space with potential for a range of future uses (subject to the necessary consents).
