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 £475,000 - £500,000.
Having been significantly improved and meticulously maintained by the current owner, this individual detached residence offers deceptively spacious and versatile accommodation that truly must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
The property is ideally located in the heart of the sought-after waterside village of St Lawrence Bay, renowned for its sailing and water sports clubs set along the banks of the River Blackwater, all within comfortable walking distance.
The extended accommodation comprises four light and airy double bedrooms, including an en suite to the principal bedroom, a refitted family bathroom, and a generous landing area on the first floor.
The ground floor features an inviting entrance hall leading to a shower room, living room, study/playroom, dining room, and a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility room.
Externally, the property benefits from an attractive rear garden with outbuilding/store shed.
Ample off-road parking is available to the front, with the added advantage of independent vehicular access from Seaway at the rear of the garden, providing further parking and potential garage access, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
This is a truly unique home, and early viewing is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment. Energy Rating D.
