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.

Ever dreamed of living right on the beach? Watching the summer sun set over a driftwood campfire or the stormy winter seas lash against the shore?
Well then take a peek at this recently built three bedroom bungalow located in a small beach-front community on the Cumbrian Coast which will allow the owner to be almost self-sufficient and generate their own electricity!

Outside there is parking to one side, a fabulous rustic beach cabin which was used as an AirBnb and has its own beach front BBQ terrace, a range of equipment stores and kennels to the other side and an enclosed decking area right across the front from where you can chill and dine overlooking the beach and enjoy the the gorgeous sunsets!
There is even a tiny station within a short walk as the West Coast train line runs along the coastline behind the property, letting you wave at the steam trains when they come by and feel like your in the 'Railway Children'!
