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 property is being sold with a brand new lease, private residents' parking, and no onward chain!
Located on the raised ground floor of an attractive period building, the property retains many original features, including high ceilings and beautiful cornicing in the communal hallway.
This particular flat is situated towards the rear, benefiting from a southerly aspect in the main rooms, highlighted by near floor-to-ceiling bay sash windows.
The main living area measures over 5.1m x 4m, with additional space featuring a recessed kitchen.
While the property could use some modernisation, this presents a great opportunity for investment or a first-time purchase.
The bedroom is located down the corridor, along with a separate bathroom and toilet.
The location truly is the icing on the cake, as it is just at the entrance to Preston Park, which features cafés, a variety of recreational facilities, lawns, formal flower borders, and rose gardens.
It is also conveniently close for a short bus ride to Brighton city centre. Call now to book your viewing appointment with the vendor's chosen local independent agent, Spencer & Leigh.
