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
Secluded semi-rural location for this detached bungalow, tucked away and set back from a lane on the edge of countryside, yet just moments away Westwood Cross Shopping Centre and access to Thanet's beautiful beaches.
The property occupies a large and unusual plot which measures approximately 0.21 acres. A paradise for those who are keen gardeners and perfect for those looking for seclusion and ultimate privacy.
The bungalow is in need of full refurbishment and offers a great blank canvas to potentially extend, subject to necessary consents being approved.
There are two bedrooms and a third box room which makes for a good study. A dining area sits central to the bungalow, adjacent to the kitchen with the lounge just off here.
The 98' x 72' (30.16m x 21.99m) garden encompasses the bungalow and a huge garage provides extensive space for storing vehicles and more than enough for those who like to tinker.
All in all, a very unique opportunity offered with no forward chain.
Location: Set on the cusp of the a la mode coastal town of Margate, this property enjoys an enviable semi-rural position yet on the peripheries of Broadstairs and Ramsgate.
Margate is perhaps best known for its celebrated cultural offering, with the acclaimed Turner Contemporary providing a striking landmark on the seafront, complemented by the much loved Dreamland amusement park and an eclectic selection of independent cafés, restaurants, galleries and boutiques.
The coastline itself provides an exceptional backdrop, with a succession of sandy beaches, sheltered bays and attractive promenades offering ample opportunity for coastal walks, recreation and relaxation.
For commuters, Margate benefits from high speed rail services to London, while the neighbouring coastal towns of Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Birchington are all readily accessible by road, each offering their own range of amenities, beaches and attractions.
Road connections are equally convenient, with direct access to the A299 Thanet Way and onward connections to the M2, providing an efficient route towards Canterbury, London and the wider Kent and South East region.
With its combination of coastal beauty, cultural appeal, excellent connectivity and an increasingly sophisticated lifestyle offering, Margate represents an attractive setting for those seeking the best of contemporary seaside living within easy reach of London.
