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
Extending to nearly 7,000 sq ft, St Winifreds sits above Totland Bay, overlooking one of the Island's finest sandy beaches.
Formerly a convent, the house retains period character alongside modern enhancements.
Over the past three years, the property has been significantly improved, including designer bathrooms, a cinema room, enlarged terraces, a refurbished roof terrace, tiled flooring in the main hall, new wardrobes, updated mock‐Tudor cladding, and comprehensive landscaping.
A rear extension added a kitchen/diner with a lantern roof light and bi‐fold doors opening onto a large terrace with a heated pool. Power and plumbing are ready for a hot tub.
The house showcases period features, including an elegant staircase, ornate ceilings, and decorative fireplaces.
The accommodation is spacious and versatile, incorporating an oval office, gym, cinema room, and generous principal rooms ideal for entertaining.
The kitchen forms the heart of the home, overlooking the gardens and pool. The principal bedroom and two further doubles enjoy superb sea views, with scope to form individual suites.
Four additional double bedrooms and a refurbished balcony complete the upper floors.
The home remains exceptionally well-maintained, offering flexible six‐bedroom accommodation with potential annex space.
The house is surrounded by a well-kept and relatively low-maintenance garden, with the whole plot measuring about 0.89 acres.
The area is level and is mostly laid to lawn with a terrace to the south and east incorporating the heated swimming pool.
There is also power and plumbing in place for a hot tub (available by separate negotiation).
