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
GUIDE PRICE £550,000 - £575,000 Right on the edge of the South Downs, this seaside home enjoys a breathtaking view stretching out over the green sweep of Telscombe Tye to Peacehaven and Newhaven beyond - all girdled by the sea in a stunning 180 degrees panorama.
The good-sized front garden of this 4 bedroom property is walled and hedged. Block-paved driveway parking leads to an E.V.
charger installed outside the big integral garage, which has a tiled floor and wall-mounted storage cabinets. Unrestricted on-road parking for visitors.
Off the bright, welcoming hallway is a modern, recently refitted bathroom with two quirky windows, bath, w.c. and separate shower-cubicle.
The smart, functional kitchen has a built-in fridge-freezer and ample storage cupboards plus space and plumbing for a dishwasher.
South-facing, the kitchen is bathed in sunlight and looks out over beautiful greenery to the sea. Each of the two ground-floor bedrooms has a characterful bow-window looking onto the front garden.
One has a beamed ceiling and a wall-mounted T.V. with soundbar (included). The other has a built-in mirror-doored double wardrobe plus a separate built-in cupboard.
The large L-shaped living/dining area has a bull's-eye window plus patio doors which have the same superb sea-view as the kitchen. These access the South-facing sun-terrace.
The large well-planted rear garden with a Scots Pine and an ornamental fishpond has access to two large inter-connecting undercroft storage areas with power supply.
The dining-area has a door to the utility room, which in turn leads to the garage. There is a recently installed combi-boiler plus washing -machine and tumble-dryer (both Bosch).
Upstairs on the first floor are two more bedrooms. The double bedroom has access to the large loft and also to a balcony.
From this, as well as from the single bedroom/study, the panoramic view of the South Downs, surrounding area and sea is unrivalled. A w.c.
with vanity unit off the landing serves both upstairs bedrooms. New roof and patio doors installed June 2026. Superfast full fibre broadband.
Nearby bus-links to local schools, shopping, Saltdean Lido, the Marina and all that is offered by the city of Brighton and Hove. No chain.
