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
*** no onward chain *** This charming, three-bedroom, semi-detached bungalow represents a rare market opportunity, having been lovingly maintained by its one previous owner who built the property themselves under the 'Self-Build Scheme' in the 1960s.
Offering surprisingly spacious accommodation throughout, the home is well-maintained but offers the perfect potential for a prospective purchaser to make their own mark through improvement, alteration and extension - a particular point of mention being the potential to convert the spacious loft space, which is of course subject to the necessary planning and consent.
The interior layout flows seamlessly, beginning with a generous principal bedroom featuring a beautiful bow window that frames a delightful outlook towards the open green spaces of Brighton Racecourse.
The heart of the home boasts connected kitchen and dining areas alongside a bright, inviting living room with French doors that open directly onto a quiet, tranquil rear garden - a genuine sun trap filled with natural bird song.
Externally, the property sits on an impressive plot with generous front and rear gardens, accompanied by a private tandem driveway which could accommodate a number of vehicles and leads to a secure garage.
Perfectly positioned for both convenience and lifestyle, the home is located just moments from Brighton Racecourse for scenic dog walks, and sits within easy reach of the Royal Sussex County Hospital, Brighton Marina, local supermarkets, and both the vibrant village heart and seafront of Kemp Town.
