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
Occupying a remarkable position in the heart of Langstone, just before the historic toll bridge leading to Hayling Island, this exceptional three-bedroom maisonette offers a rare opportunity to own a home rich in character, history and coastal charm.
Believed to date from the pre-Victorian era, the property played a fascinating role during the Second World War when it was commandeered for military use.
It is reputed that renowned engineer and inventor Sir Barnes Wallis used one of the rooms as an office while developing his revolutionary "bouncing bomb" concept.
Local history suggests Wallis refined the idea by skipping marbles across water in a bathtub or garden tank, making this home a unique part of Britain's wartime heritage.
Beautifully presented throughout, the property spans over three spacious floors and combines period character with modern living.
The accommodation includes a welcoming entrance hall, generous living room, separate dining room, contemporary fitted kitchen with island, utility room, shower room, and three well-proportioned bedrooms.
A distinctive tower room adds further charm and versatility, while the private roof garden provides an exceptional space to relax and enjoy the stunning coastal views across the surrounding harbour.
Situated within one of Hampshire's most desirable waterside villages, residents benefit from picturesque coastal walks, marinas, traditional pubs, highly regarded schools, and excellent transport connections via the A27, A3(M), M27 and nearby rail services.

Solicitor Quotes Choosing the right conveyancing solicitor is extremely important to ensure that you obtain an effective yet cost-efficient solution.
The lure of supposedly cheaper on-line "conveyancing warehouse" style services can be very difficult to ignore but this is a route fraught with problems that we strongly urge you to avoid.
A local, established and experienced conveyancer will safeguard your interests and get the job done in a timely manner.
Bernards can recommend several local firms of solicitors who have the necessary local knowledge and will provide a personable service. Please ask a member of our sales team for further details.
