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 sizeable detached, older-style three-bedroom home requiring refurbishment, set back from the road and conveniently positioned within easy reach of Freshwater’s shops and amenities.
The property has been extended over the years and now offers well-proportioned living space, enhanced by a large conservatory to one side.
The ground floor includes a generous living room, a separate dining room, a kitchen and a practical utility porch with a WC off.
Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, two of which open onto a substantial south-facing balcony laid to timber decking, an ideal spot for relaxation.
A shower room completes the first-floor accommodation. There is a gas central heating system warming the accommodation which is complemented by double glazing to the majority of windows.
Outside, enclosed gardens wrap around the front, side and rear of the property, with good off-road parking for a couple of vehicles at the front and a detached garage, making this an excellent and convenient family home.
Location The property enjoys an enviable position between Freshwater and Totland Bay's much-loved coastline and everyday amenities.
The picturesque beach and the scenic 'Turf Walk' promenade in Totland Bay are around a mile away, offering beautiful sea views, relaxed dining and access to the coastal path leading around to Colwell Bay.
Freshwater village centre, with its wider range of shops, cafés and practical services, is just a short distance away, while miles of countryside and downland walks, including routes across Headon Warren and towards Tennyson Down, provide superb opportunities for outdoor exploration.
The charming harbour town of Yarmouth, with its ferry link to Lymington, is only a brief drive from the property, making this an ideal location for those seeking a blend of coastal living, village convenience and excellent access to the wider West Wight.
