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 Situated along a quiet residential road and just a two-minute walk from the seafront, this detached one-bedroom bungalow occupies a generous corner plot and offers excellent potential to extend, subject to the necessary planning permission.
The accommodation comprises a comfortable lounge, kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. An opening between the kitchen and lounge creates a bright, sociable space with an open-plan feel.
The property requires no major building work and would benefit only from cosmetic updating, giving the new owner an ideal opportunity to personalise the interior.
Outside, the property benefits from a good-sized garden, an additional side garden and a patio area. A private driveway provides off-street parking for two cars.
The nearby seafront offers attractive estuary views and enjoyable walks along the seawall.
A further 12-minute walk leads to the main seafront, where you will find pubs, restaurants, takeaways, live entertainment and leisure attractions.
The nearest bus stop is approximately two minutes away on foot, providing connections around Canvey Island and towards Benfleet, Basildon and Southend.
