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
Well this one is quite something! So many gorgeous features to this modern well designed apartment - where to start? The open plan living space is quite spectacular.
Bathed in natural sunlight from the wall of glass that is the south facing bifold doors and windows, the room has ample space for both formal dining area and soft living.
The kitchen is high spec and well laid out with ample counter top and low and high level storage. The balcony is an inviting area, up high and out of the way - the views are really captivating.
A full 180 degree vista from Brighton's seafront icons to the east across to Shoreham and beyond on a clear day.
The bedrooms are an excellent size, again with lots of natuarl light and bothe with wardrobes.
The sellers have bedroom two as an occasional guest room (sofa bed at the ready!) The bathroom is again: crisp and contemporary.
Natural stone colour tiling and a white bathroom suite that includes a full length bath with a screened Shower.
The large walk in utility/store cupboard is home to the modern hot water system and plumbing for a washing machine. What else makes this a stand out great buy?
Its beautifully presented and needs no large reserve of funds to make good. It has the comfort and security of the balance of the new home warranty. It comes with a good long lease.
The dedicated parking space is great and can comfortably cope with a large modern car- it's also close to the entrance which is great when the rain is flooding down!
The building is well insulated which means that running costs are more reasonable. Our apartnment doesn't have anyone above the living/dining room. It's secure and well managed.
There's dedicated bike storage. Lots and lots of great things about the building... but what of the loctaion?
There's a choice of short walks to either Portslade or Aldrington Stations with main line trains to Gatwick and Central London.
Plenty of great schools and nurseries on hand as are the shops, cafes and restaurants of "up and coming" Portland Road.
Poets Corner is home to a great selection of Pubs with excellent menus and fine coffee houses. Bus routes into Brighton are nearby... so all in all, a fabulous location!
