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
Montague Road Set on Montague Road, this is a substantial family home at close to 4,000 square feet — with a scale and feel that brings Boscombe Manor to mind, while still being within easy reach of Southbourne High Street, and with the sea at the end of the road.
Ground Floor The ground floor is expansive, and its main draw is the open-plan lounge, kitchen and diner, with bi-fold doors opening onto one of the two gardens.
A huge walk-in pantry sits just off this space, and a separate utility room leads off the hallway.
On the other side of the ground floor is a large reception room, currently set up as a DJ room, and alongside it a genuinely flexible additional room — generously sized, with its own adjoining shower room, and direct access out to the second garden.
A well-finished downstairs WC completes this floor. First Floor Upstairs continues in the same vein.
The master suite has a walk-in wardrobe and a striking en-suite with a standalone bath and separate shower, along with plenty of room for everything else a bedroom needs.
The three further bedrooms are all a great size — one has its own en-suite, while the other two share the main bathroom, which also has a standalone bath and separate shower.
Outside Outside, there's plenty of space: parking for several cars — essential this close to the beach — a party-style garden off the main living space, and a private, fire-pit garden on the other side of the property.
Location Montague Road sits close enough to Southbourne High Street to make the most of it, with a feel and scale similar to Boscombe Manor, and the sea at the end of the road for good measure — a rare combination of space, position and coastal access.
