Description

This spacious detached bungalow offers a single-storey living arrangement that is ripe for transformation. Featuring a generous reception area, a well-sized garden, and a garage with driveway parking, the property stands as an excellent opportunity for those looking to modernise their home and personalise the layout to fit their style. With no onward chain, buyers can start their renovation journey without delay. The main living room, located at the front, benefits from ample natural light thanks to its large window and provides a flexible space for various seating configurations around the fireplace. At the rear, a separate dining room offers garden views and direct access to outdoor space, ideal for everyday meals or larger gatherings. The kitchen runs along the back of the house and includes sufficient worktop space and storage options; it's a clear candidate for updating or reimagining based on personal taste. Three bedrooms branch off from a central hallway. The principal bedroom is a spacious double with an expansive front window; while two additional bedrooms allow versatility for guests, office space, or hobbies. These rooms are serviced by a family bathroom featuring essential amenities alongside an extra cloakroom. The garden is particularly attractive—mature and enclosed with established shrubs surrounding a central lawn area which serves as an inviting outdoor retreat. A paved seating area adjacent to the house offers a pleasant spot for relaxation. A driveway leads directly to an attached garage providing both parking and storage solutions. Located in an area with convenient local shopping options including an M&S and chemist, as well as excellent schools within walking distance such as Merrow Infant School and George Abbot. Approximately 2 miles from Guildford's vibrant cobbled High Street known for its shops, restaurants, theatre, cinema complex and various leisure facilities. Transport links are robust with regular bus services to Guildford and two train stations offering swift connections to London Waterloo in about 37 minutes; proximity to the A3 also facilitates access to major transport routes including Heathrow and Gatwick airports.
