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.

LAST ONE REMAINING! - TO INCLUDE FITTED CARPETS: Three/four bedroom detached property forming part of the fourth phase of this fabulous development by JW Stratton.
Constructed on Sovereign Harbour North, Macauley Place is a brand new development of contemporary architectural design with high gables, slanting roofs and varying facades and features.
Featuring a mix of three, and four/five bedroom houses and two bedroom apartments, the properties are built to a very high standard and provide energy efficient, low maintenance homes with private gardens (balconies for the apartments) and off-road car parking, in this much sought after area of Eastbourne.
The individual external designs feature interesting two-tone brick and boarded facades with metallic grey anodised aluminium windows, doors and feature panels.
Glazed gables, tall windows and wide glass screens and patio doors bring plenty of light into the homes, many of which provide open views across the countryside to the South Downs and the green space immediately to the west of the development.
Floors, walls and roofs are packed with insulation, and low energy lighting and high efficiency condensing boilers combined with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor bring energy efficiency and low running costs.
Eye catching staircases are individually designed with hemlock newels and handrails and glass balustrades that make an instant impression when entering the property through the secure, high quality front door into the entrance hallway.
Internal doors are contemporary oak veneer with polished chrome ironmongery – complimenting the clean, sharp lines of the exterior design and reflecting them throughout the interior.
Kitchens are fitted with high quality units and a range of appliances fitted as standard. Bathrooms and en-suite shower rooms are fitted with crisp white sanitary ware and chrome ceramic disc taps.
`Wet` walls and floors are finished with glazed tiling and cushion flooring respectively.
Chrome and glass shower enclosures with mains pressure shower units are complimented by polished chrome towel warmers and door ironmongery.
Front doors, hallways and ground floor cloakrooms are designed for easy mobility access, as is the positioning of electrical switches.
Patio doors lead out onto paved areas in the private rear gardens.
A specially prepared ecology area with site specific planting and landscaping, along with permeable roadways (allowing rainwater to percolate into the ground below rather than placing additional demand on the local drainage system) all conspire to provide a sustainable lifestyle and make Macauley Place a truly unique and environmentally friendly development.
