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.

Further details on the existing tenancies and income can be provided on request.
This aspect of the development offers passed planning permission rr/2024/816/P for a barn to be converted into two separate 1 Bedroom dwellings.

Here, open fields and woodland walks create a sense of calm that is increasingly rare, yet the location remains remarkably well connected for day‐to‐day living just off the A21.
Just a short distance away lies Robertsbridge, a charming village with a rich history dating back to the 12th century.
Originally built around a Cistercian abbey, the village has grown into a welcoming community with timber‐framed buildings, independent shops, cafés and a mainline station offering direct services to London.
A little further is the historic town of Battle, named after the famous Battle of Hastings in 1066.
Its imposing Abbey, characterful high street and selection of eateries make it a favourite destination for both locals and visitors.
Despite its rural feel, the development is ideally placed for access to a number of larger towns.
Hastings (11 miles) and Eastbourne (18 miles) offer extensive shopping, seafront attractions and leisure facilities, while Hailsham (12 miles) and Uckfield (14 miles) provide convenient everyday amenities.
For those who enjoy a broader choice of boutiques, restaurants and cultural venues, Tunbridge Wells (17 miles) and Brighton (28 miles) are both within easy reach.
Gatwick Airport, a major hub for international travel, is approximately 38 miles away.
Families are well served by a selection of respected schools, including Vinehall School, which sits close by, as well as Robertsbridge Community College and several primary schools in the surrounding villages.
The area offers a blend of state and independent options, making it a practical choice for households of all ages.
For commuters, Robertsbridge Station is just a short drive away, providing direct rail links to London Charing Cross, London Bridge and Waterloo East, with journey times of around 1 hour 15 minutes.
This makes the location particularly appealing to those seeking a quieter lifestyle without losing easy access to the City. Directions:
