Description

This semi-detached home, originally constructed in 1911, has been a cherished residence for over sixty years and is now ready to welcome new ownership. Crafted with care and history, the property provides an opportunity for renovation while situated in a highly desirable area of Guildford. Spanning more than 2,200 square feet across two levels, the home features a functional layout that suits both family living and potential reconfiguration. The ground floor greets you with a spacious reception hall that showcases the property's character. To one side, you'll find a generous living room; on the other, a bright dining area or secondary sitting room adjoins a fitted kitchen/breakfast room that opens to the garden. A convenient WC rounds out this floor’s practicality. With ample space throughout, there are numerous options for modern updates to suit contemporary lifestyles. The first floor consists of four well-proportioned bedrooms; the principal suite includes an ensuite bathroom for added privacy. Three additional bedrooms share a family bathroom, creating sufficient space for children or guests. The rear-facing rooms benefit from views of the south-facing garden, which gently slopes away from the house—offering both depth and tranquility. Notably, the garden houses an unused swimming pool with existing electrical supply and liner—providing possibilities for restoration or redesign according to individual preferences. In addition to its internal space, this home includes a double garage and driveway parking—a practical benefit in this sought-after area—and is complemented by an outbuilding that adds further utility. While well-maintained over the years, this property now awaits modernization and offers buyers a unique chance to infuse their personal style while preserving its historic charm. Its sizable interiors combined with its rich heritage present significant potential to create a customized family sanctuary. Located on Guildown Road—renowned for its peaceful residential atmosphere—the property is just moments away from Guildford's vibrant town center, with its charming High Street filled with shops and eateries. Additionally, it boasts easy access to outstanding local schools as well as excellent transport links via rail and road routes leading to London and beyond. This area combines community spirit with natural beauty from nearby Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, making it an appealing location for families seeking both convenience and lifestyle benefits.
