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
Auction details available at - This semi-detached house occupies a generous plot, measuring in excess of 1/3 of an acre.
The property now requires refurbishment and modernising in most areas but certainly has huge potential to create a delightfully spacious home.
The property is located at the head of a cul de sac in a peaceful position approximately 1 mile from the High Street and the Esplanade and is offered with no onward chain.
The property is incredibly versatile with the potential to have a selection of bedroom accommodation on both the ground and first floor.
The accommodation briefly comprises of a glazed entrance porch leading to a spacious hallway. There are two reception rooms/bedrooms adjoining the hallway.
One room has a glazed door leading out to the rear gardens. The other features an open fire with stone hearth and surround and a southerly facing, deep bay window.
A utility room also adjoins the hallway which offers a selection of base and wall mounted units and worksurfaces and a cloakrooom.
Finally, there is a large room beyond the utility room which could serve several purposes.
The size certainly promotes a generous reception space with door providing access to both the front and rear or possible a master bedroom with plenty of space to fit an en suite.
The first floor offers another bedroom which offers a selection of fitted storage and a southerly outlook over the rear gardens and a bathroom.
In addition, there is a large reception space with a deep bay window overlooking the rear gardens with viws towards Salcombe Hill in the East.
Glazed double doors lead to a large, triple aspect, kitchen/dining room.
The room offers access to the rear gardens via a balcony, or through a glazed door to the side which leads to the garage and back to the front of the property.
Finally there is a conservatory adjoining the kitchen. The property is approached over a shared concrete driveway with plenty of room for parking and turning.
A private drive leads to the detached single garage and then beyond into the southerly facing rear garden.
The rear gardens make up large percentage of the total plot and offer stunning views over Salcombe HIll to the east. Early inspection is recommended to truly understand the property's unique layout.
