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
Gordon Barker Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this exceptional three-bedroom first-floor apartment, occupying part of an elegant period residence in the highly desirable Boscombe Manor conservation area, just moments from Bournemouth's award-winning coastline.
Blending the charm and proportions of a grand former gentleman's residence with stylish contemporary interiors, this beautifully refurbished home offers generous accommodation throughout and an enviable coastal lifestyle.
A well-maintained communal entrance and impressive staircase lead to the apartment, where a wide central hallway immediately creates a wonderful sense of space.
Large windows and high ceilings enhance the light-filled interiors, while the thoughtful layout provides both practicality and flexibility for modern living.
At the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, beautifully appointed with contemporary cabinetry, ample work surfaces and dual-aspect windows that flood the room with natural light.
The impressive south-west-facing living room is equally inviting, offering a bright and airy space in which to relax or entertain, with dual-aspect windows capturing sunshine throughout the day.
The apartment offers three generous bedrooms, including a superb principal bedroom with an elegant bay window and a sunny southerly aspect.
Two further double bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for family, guests or those requiring a dedicated home office.
A stylish family bathroom is complemented by a separate WC, while the spacious hallway and well-designed layout further enhance the feeling of comfort and convenience.
Outside, residents can enjoy beautifully maintained communal gardens, along with the rare advantage of a private garage and an allocated parking space positioned directly in front.
The building has also recently benefited from substantial roof improvements, offering reassurance for prospective purchasers.
