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 two-bedroom flat has considerable charm, occupies the top two floors within a handsome period building on Dunbar's vibrant High Street, and enjoys remarkable sea views.
The lower floor, centred around a bright and well-proportioned living room, is finished in soft neutral tones with crisp white cornicing and twin sash windows that flood the space with natural light.
The room flows naturally into a separate dining area, creating a sociable and versatile layout.
The kitchen is a well-fitted and practical space, furnished with warm oak-fronted cabinetry and granite-effect worktops. There is an integrated oven, ceramic hob and extractor fan.
The bathroom is a particularly spacious room, finished with white tiling, a classic panelled bath with overhead shower, a vanity unit with storage below and a frosted sash window.
Also on the lower floor is a well-presented second bedroom, decorated in soft duck-egg blue tones with a carpeted floor, cornice detailing and a sash window overlooking the rooftops of the High Street.
A carpeted internal staircase rises from the hall to the upper floor, where the principal bedroom is an impressive space.
The room is flooded with natural light from Velux skylights and benefits from vaulted ceilings that lend it an airy, loft-like quality.
Warm timber flooring, soft blue walls and the scale of the room create an atmosphere that is both tranquil and inspiring.
The Velux windows frame a breathtaking view directly out to sea, a sweep of blue water and open sky above the terracotta rooftops of the historic town below.
Further skylights to the rear reveal the rolling East Lothian countryside and the distinctive profile of Traprain Law rising from the plain beyond.
Externally, there is ample on street parking, and to the rear of the property there is a shared drying green.
