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
A rare opportunity to purchase this substantial and characterful detached house, dating from the 1930's and understood to have once been a popular local hotel, offering a wealth of charm and versatile family accommodation in a highly sought-after location on Moat Road, East Grinstead.
Ideally positioned within easy reach of the town centre, mainline station and well regarded schools, the property welcomes you via an impressive entrance hall leading into a bright dual-aspect lounge and a separate dining room, which in turn opens into a particularly striking, large conservatory featuring a mature vine that creates a unique indoor garden atmosphere.
The recently modernised kitchen/breakfast room provides a stylish and functional hub, complemented by a ground floor shower room, guest cloakroom, and a substantial utility/storage space.
Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to the well-proportioned bedrooms and a family shower room, offering flexible living arrangements.
Outside, the property boasts a beautifully mature and well-stocked garden with several sheds and a large summer house, ideal for entertaining, working from home, or use as a studio or workshop, while to the front there is an in-and-out driveway providing ample off-road parking along with a single garage.
Having been much loved by the same family for many decades and offered to the market with no onward chain, this is a rare chance to secure a unique home brimming with character and potential.
