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
Unusually for an apartment, the property has a private entrance and the principal accommodation is arranged over two levels.
The living area is positioned on the top floor as this allows for direct access to a large terrace/balcony that enjoys water views of Poole Harbour.
The living/dining area is open to a fitted kitchen and, as can be seen from the photographs, this room has an impressive feeling of space enhanced by a feature vaulted ceiling.
Sensibly, the bedrooms and bathroom are located on the first floor which allows for an organic separation of the living and sleeping areas.
Should three bedrooms be surplus to requirements, the layout could be ideal for buyers wishing to work from home.
In our opinion, the location couldn’t be more convenient as you have a host of shops, restaurants and amenities on your doorstep, and it goes without saying that the open water of Poole Harbour is literally at the end of the road.
Offered to the market with no forward chain, we feel this apartment (or strictly speaking, maisonette) could represent tremendous value to buyers wanting a sense of space and privacy, a water view and a convenient location.
