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
Positioned on a spacious corner plot at the head of a residential cul de sac, 1 Stairlie Crescent, West Kilbride offers an exciting opportunity to modernise a well-proportioned, extended, three-bedroom detached bungalow in one of Ayrshire's most desirable coastal villages.
A welcoming reception hall leads through to a generous lounge and a separate dining room featuring French doors opening onto the side garden.
The fitted kitchen sits off the lounge, offering scope for reconfiguration or upgrading to suit modern tastes.
Three bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, while the shower room includes a three-piece suite.
Externally, the property benefits from a driveway, mature wrap-around gardens and a rear garden complete with a timber shed for outdoor storage.
With clear scope for refurbishment throughout, this is a fantastic chance to create a bespoke coastal home.
