Summary - 20a, Bridge Street GU7 1HY
3 bed 2 bath House
Charming period cottage, central Godalming location, ideal for character-loving buyers.
Grade II listed cottage with original beams and sash windows
This Grade II listed, three-bedroom cottage on Bridge Street blends genuine period character with practical, updated fittings. Exposed blackened beams, sash windows and a feature fireplace create immediate historic charm, while a modern kitchen and contemporary bathroom deliver everyday convenience. The property is compact at around 806 sq ft, arranged over two floors, and is best suited to buyers wanting a central, characterful home rather than large garden or open-plan living.
The town-centre location is a major asset: independent shops, cafés, restaurants, Godalming mainline station (approx. 45 minutes to London Waterloo) and riverside walks are all within easy reach. A private walled courtyard provides an intimate outdoor space for al fresco dining and potted plants, but the plot is small and not suitable for extensive landscaping or play space.
Practical considerations include the Grade II listed status, which will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance or remodelling; prospective buyers should seek specialist advice before planning changes. There is a recorded medium flood risk and a local crime statistic noted as high, so buyers should review flood and security measures. Heating is gas-fired via a boiler and radiators; thermal performance is average, reflecting the age and construction of the building.
Overall, this cottage will appeal to buyers who value central location and authentic period detail—first-time buyers, professionals or couples seeking a distinctive town home—rather than those looking for large rooms, extensive outdoor space or full modernisation potential.
