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
Situated just one road back from the sandy beach in Westbrook and within easy walking distance of Margate and the train station, this substantial period home presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a project with exceptional potential.
Requiring finishing works throughout, the property offers the perfect blank canvas for those looking to create a bespoke home while preserving its charming character features.
Arranged over four storeys, the accommodation is both generous and versatile. The lower ground floor boasts a spacious cellar, ideal for storage or future conversion (subject to necessary consents).
On the ground floor, there is a lounge, a separate dining room, and a kitchen/breakfast space (which is currently unfitted) offering the chance to design and install a kitchen to your own specification.
The first floor features a delightful split-level landing that enhances the home’s period appeal and provides access to four well-proportioned bedrooms.
The second floor completes the accommodation with a large double bedroom, a walk-in wardrobe, and a spacious bathroom.
This is a fantastic opportunity for buyers with vision; particularly those who appreciate period homes and are eager to put their own stamp on a property in a highly desirable coastal location.
