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
+++Wicket View – Stylish Penthouse Studio Overlooking Scarborough Cricket Ground...
We are delighted to present Wicket View, a stylish and contemporary penthouse studio apartment occupying an enviable position within North Marine House, in the heart of Scarborough’s popular North Side.
Enjoying superb elevated views directly across Scarborough Cricket Club – Yorkshire’s first-class out-ground, this unique apartment offers an exciting opportunity for investors, holiday-let buyers or those seeking their own coastal retreat.+++ Bright, modern and thoughtfully arranged, the accommodation provides an attractive open-plan living, sleeping and kitchen space designed to maximise both comfort and functionality.
Its elevated penthouse position makes the most of the outlook across the cricket ground, creating a particularly impressive setting and an obvious attraction for cricket enthusiasts visiting the town.
The apartment is currently operating as a successful holiday let, providing prospective purchasers with an excellent opportunity to acquire an established investment in one of Scarborough’s most popular visitor locations.
The property can also be purchased fully furnished, subject to separate negotiation, offering the potential for a smooth continuation of the existing holiday-let use.
Alternatively, the apartment can be offered with vacant possession for purchasers wishing to use it as their own coastal retreat or explore alternative uses. The location is a major selling point.
North Marine House is ideally placed within easy walking distance of Scarborough town centre, with a wide variety of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants close at hand.
Scarborough’s beautiful North Bay and beach, Peasholm Park and the Open Air Theatre are also within comfortable walking distance, while the South Bay, harbour and many of the town’s traditional seaside attractions are easily accessible.
Scarborough itself remains one of Yorkshire’s best-loved coastal destinations, offering two beautiful bays, miles of coastline and an excellent choice of attractions.
From the historic Scarborough Castle and bustling seafront to the Open Air Theatre, Alpamare, Peasholm Park and North Bay, there is something to attract visitors throughout the year.
With its penthouse position, cricket ground views, established holiday-let use and highly convenient coastal location, Wicket View represents a particularly appealing investment opportunity or seaside bolt-hole.
