Tucked behind an arched entrance in St Catherine’s Conservation Area, this Grade II listed Arts & Crafts cottage blends period charm with practical living. The ground floor’s generous living room, log burner and feature fireplace create immediate warmth and character, while the kitchen/dining area opens onto a private courtyard and second patio — ideal for relaxed indoor/outdoor living. A brick outbuilding with electricity provides useful storage.
Upstairs offers two double bedrooms with built-in storage and a generous family bathroom. Off-street parking for one car is a rare convenience in this central location, and the River Wey towpath, local pubs and the North Downs are all within easy reach. Guildford town centre and the station are a short walk away, making fast London commutes straightforward.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status: any alterations will need consent and may limit structural or energy-efficiency works. Walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation and the glazing is secondary only, so upgrading heating efficiency will require careful planning. Council Tax Band E and local crime rates above average are factual wider-area considerations.
This freehold cottage will suit purchasers who value period detail and location over turn-key modernisation. It offers strong lifestyle appeal and the potential to sensitively enhance comfort and efficiency, subject to listed-building constraints.
