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 south west facing first floor studio apartment tucked away in the most popular seaside resort of West Bay and just a stone's throw from the beach, with a much sought after single garage.
THE PROPERTY Tucked away a short walk from the centre of the most popular seaside resort of West Bay with all its superb amenities, restaurants, and fantastic beaches, number 15 Heron Court is a most convenient first floor studio apartment.
Heron Court is located within the Old Shipyard Centre, a development of seaside apartments built in the late 1960's quietly tucked away with a south-facing aspect and overlooking a large communal green/sitting area.
There is access to the beaches and level walking along the West Beach promenade and piers, with cliff walks along the Jurassic Coastline and onto the South West Coastal Path.
On first entering the property there is a surprising feeling of space and light, and it is immediately obvious that this much loved property has been very well looked after by the present owners and offers a rare opportunity to purchase a perfect bolt hole or seaside home.
The main room is light and spacious, with a cleverly designed and fitted put away bed which fits perfectly into bespoke wooden cabinets.
Once the bed is put away, there is plenty of room for a dining table and sofas and there is also a lovely sunroom, a perfect place to sit and enjoy this most tranquil location.
There is also a surprisingly good sized and well-fitted kitchen incorporating a number of wall and base units, and a bathroom. Just below the property is also a much sought after single garage.
All in all, this is a truly wonderful property in such a popular and convenient location.
LOCATION The Dorset coast is a world heritage site and West Bay is a popular and sought-after fishing village with a pretty harbour, a variety of interesting shops, pubs and restaurants as well as being the coastal location for the popular television series 'Broadchurch'.
Burton Bradstock, home of the popular Hive Beach Café and Seaside Boarding House, the cliff top creation of the former Groucho Club co-founder, is just a short drive from the property.
West Bay is just under 2 miles south of the handsome Georgian market town of Bridport with its excellent variety of shops, schools and restaurants and supermarkets including Waitrose, Morrisons and Co-op and a particularly popular twice weekly street market.
The county town of Dorchester is 16 miles to the east and has a further range of facilities including a main line railway station to London Waterloo.
