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
This exceptional top-floor apartment occupies a truly enviable shorefront position within the picturesque coastal village of Skelmorlie, commanding breathtaking, uninterrupted panoramic views across the Firth of Clyde towards the islands and beyond.
Set literally on the waterfront, the property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy tranquil coastal living combined with the charm and convenience of a well-connected village setting.
The accommodation is presented to an exacting standard and comprises a welcoming reception hallway, two generously proportioned double bedrooms, and a stunning, light-filled lounge/dining area.
The lounge features patio doors opening onto a private balcony-an idyllic vantage point from which to take in the spectacular westerly sunsets and ever-changing seascape.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with high-quality appliances, sleek cabinetry, and ample storage, perfectly suited for modern living.
Throughout, the apartment has been thoughtfully designed to maximise natural light and fully capitalise on its remarkable outlook.
The bespoke shower room is beautifully appointed with the original bathroom sub divided to provide a shower room and a separate en- suite toilet for bedroom 2.
Further benefits include secure entry, gas central heating, double glazing, and a private loft, enhancing both comfort and practicality.
A particular feature of the property is the substantial tandem garage, located directly beneath the apartment and accessed from the rear car park.
The garage has been expertly partitioned, with full approvals in place, to create a versatile front storage area, an impressive home office space, and a workshop to the rear.
Skelmorlie lies just north of Largs and offers a range of local amenities including primary schooling and a well-regarded golf club.
The area benefits from excellent road and rail links, while nearby Wemyss Bay provides a direct CalMac ferry service to the Isle of Bute.
For sailing enthusiasts, Inverkip Marina and Largs Yacht Haven are both within easy reach, offering access to some of Scotland’s most renowned west coast waters.
