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
Set within one of Brighton's most prestigious Regency crescents, this elegant first-floor one-bedroom apartment combines timeless period charm with a truly enviable position overlooking the beautifully maintained Montpelier Gardens.
The apartment immediately impresses with its generous ceiling heights, classic proportions and large sash windows, which flood the space with natural light and frame a gorgeous, leafy outlook across the gardens below.
The main living room is a superb size, offering a wonderful sense of openness and an ideal setting for both relaxing and entertaining.
A neatly arranged kitchen sits adjacent to the living space, providing practical workspace and storage for everyday use while remaining discreetly positioned.
The large double bedroom is equally impressive, featuring an original fireplace, built-in wardrobes and ample room for additional furniture.
The bathroom is fitted with a full-sized bath and shower over, finished in a clean, contemporary style.
Further benefits include a share of freehold (50%), a long lease, and the property is offered to the market chain free, making it an excellent proposition for buyers seeking a smooth transaction.
Perfectly located just moments from Brighton mainline station, the seafront, and the vibrant cafés, shops and restaurants of Seven Dials, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home in a prime central location with one of the city's most attractive outlooks.
