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 elegant, stylishly presented split-level seafront apartment occupies the first floor of an attractive period building, which has recently undergone a complete programme of renovation, offering fantastic peace of mind.
The flat itself enjoys direct, far-reaching, sea views and seamlessly combines original period features with a considered industrial aesthetic, creating a distinctive and highly individual home.
The front door opens into a generous entrance hall, where full-height Crittall-style glazed double doors immediately give a sense of the light and space that is abundant throughout the property, and lead through to the impressive open-plan living and kitchen area.
This is undoubtedly the heart of the apartment; a wonderfully bright room with elegant arched windows framing panoramic sea views, herringbone parquet flooring, which extends through much of the rest of the flat, and a wood-burning stove.
TThe kitchen sits neatly to one side with a bespoke concrete island and worktops complimented with a copper splashback, and freestanding gas range cooker and stainless steel appliances.
Also leading off the hallway is the generous principal bedroom with its über-cool, freestanding galvanised steel bathtub set on a black and white tiled plinth, ideal for luxuriating in whilst overlooking the rooftops and rear garden.
A short staircase leads down to the lower level, where there is a fully tiled contemporary shower room.
Beyond lies the second, equally well-proportioned, bedroom, ideal as guest accommodation or a home working space, with a built-in utility cupboard and a double-glazed door opening onto a rear balcony where steps descend to the communal garden, providing a useful secondary entrance and access to outside space.
Outside There is a communal garden, accessed via the brand new fire escape, and via a key-coded rear gate which gives useful access into Westbourne Place beyind.
Plans are to overhaul the garden in the coming months, but for now it provides a quiet green space for all residents to enjoy.
Situation Located directly across from Hove seafront, with the prom hosting lots of popular restaurants, bars and cafes, as well as tennis, padel, sand sports and watersports.
