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
40% shared ownership.
A beautifully presented ground-floor apartment offered through a shared-ownership scheme, featuring stylish open-plan living, direct access to communal gardens and allocated off-street parking.
The heart of the home is the bright and spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area.
Enjoying plenty of natural light, the room provides excellent space for relaxing and entertaining, while French doors open directly onto a private patio area and the landscaped communal garden beyond.
The contemporary fitted kitchen includes attractive shaker-style units, marble-effect work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances, creating a modern and practical space.
Herringbone-effect flooring continues through the principal living areas, adding to the apartment’s stylish finish.
The generously sized double bedroom is well presented and benefits from fitted wardrobe storage and attractive feature wall panelling.
The modern bathroom includes a three-piece suite with a bath and shower above, vanity wash basin, heated towel rail and marble-effect tiling.
Further benefits include useful internal storage, an allocated parking space, additional visitor parking, communal cycle and bin storage and direct ground-floor access to the gardens.
Situated within the popular Abbey Meadows development in Great Wakering, the property combines a peaceful, semi-rural setting with convenient access to local shops, schools, bus routes and everyday amenities.
Shoeburyness and Thorpe Bay railway stations are also within easy reach, offering connections into Southend and London, while the Essex coastline and surrounding countryside provide plenty of opportunities for walking and outdoor activities.
