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
An exciting opportunity to acquire a three-bedroom house in a sought-after Salcombe location, offering exceptional potential for modernisation and enhancement.
Coming to the market for the first time in over 30 years, this charming property presents the perfect canvas to create a superb family home, stylish second residence, or lucrative holiday let.
Situated on Loring Road, just off Onslow Road, the property enjoys a convenient position within easy reach of Salcombe town centre, as well as local amenities including a school, post office/shop, and the popular Salcombe swimming pool.
The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch leading into a kitchen overlooking the garden.
A glazed door opens into a generous and light-filled sitting room, featuring a stone fireplace and sliding patio doors that provide direct access to the rear garden.
The ground floor also benefits from a spacious double bedroom and a family bathroom. Upstairs, a bright staircase leads to two further bedrooms, currently arranged as a double and a twin.
One of the rooms enjoys a large window with attractive views towards the Kingsbridge Estuary.
Externally, the property is of traditional brick construction and is set within both front and secure rear gardens, with established shrubs providing privacy and character.
An attached garage offers excellent storage or parking, ideal for a boat or outdoor equipment, and is complemented by an additional separate store.
There is also additional parking on the driveway through the metal gates.
The beautiful estuary town of Salcombe is located in the heart of the South Devon region known as the South Hams, which is known for having an uncommonly temperate climate, verdant unspoilt countryside, hidden combs and a spectacular coastline.
Arguably one of the most sought after waterfront locations in the UK, Salcombe is the perfect setting for this beautiful home.
Once a thriving fishing village, Salcombe still retains much of its original charm and character.
The property sits within the short distance of the town, with its many restaurants, local pubs and boutique shops. More extensive shopping and amenities are available in Kingsbridge.
The Salcombe Estuary has numerous sandy beaches, coves and sheltered anchorages, all of which make it an excellent base for dingy sailing, water sports, boating and long walks along the beautiful coastline.
Salcombe is also a famous yachting centre and provides a perfect cruising base from which to explore France, The Channel Islands and the beautiful harbours and creeks of the West Country.
