Summary - 1 GREATFORD DRIVE GUILDFORD GU1 2XS
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Turnkey family home on a wide, leafy plot near top schools and fast rail links.
Chain free and newly refurbished throughout
Set on a wide, tree‑lined plot in desirable Greatford Drive, this generously proportioned detached home offers almost 2,900 sq ft of living space and immediate move‑in condition. The current owners have completed a careful refurbishment: new kitchen, updated bathrooms, upgraded electrics and plumbing, and double glazing installed. The layout suits modern family life with an open, flowing ground floor, a large conservatory and flexible ground‑floor room for home working or guests.
The property benefits from a large, private rear garden, a block‑paved driveway and an integral single garage, providing ample parking and outdoor space for children and pets. The location combines leafy suburban calm with easy access to Guildford town centre, fast mainline rail services to London Waterloo and highly regarded local schools — a clear draw for families prioritising schooling and commute times.
Practical points to note: the house was constructed in the 1950s–60s and external walls are cavity as built with no added insulation assumed, so buyers should consider potential insulation improvements to reduce energy use. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Despite extensive recent works, a buyer should verify the scope and warranties for the upgrades (electrics, plumbing, bathrooms/kitchen) and budget for ongoing maintenance of a property of this size and mature landscaping.
Overall, this is a turnkey, spacious family home in one of Guildford’s sought‑after suburbs, offering strong lifestyle appeal, good connectivity and room to adapt parts of the house to changing family needs.
