This substantial three-bedroom semi-detached period house sits in a discreet spot on Castle Street, within walking distance of Farnham town centre and mainline rail links. The layout centres on a large sitting room with feature fireplace, a kitchen/breakfast room, useful utility and downstairs WC, plus a self-contained annexe/studio with kitchenette and bathroom — ideal for guests, home office or rental income.
The larger-than-average town garden is a genuine asset: mature shrubs, paved patio and lawn create private outdoor space rare for central locations. Internally the home retains period character such as sash-style windows and built-in shelving while offering scope to reconfigure: the principal bedroom could accommodate an en suite, subject to consents, and other rooms would benefit from a sympathetic modernisation to unlock value.
Practical positives include double glazing (installed since 2002), gas central heating with boiler and radiators, freehold tenure and no onward chain for a quicker move. The property is well placed for highly regarded local schools, shops, cafés and Farnham Park, making it a strong choice for family buyers seeking character and outside space close to amenities.
Buyers should note clear disadvantages: the property appears to have solid brick walls with no built-in insulation (assumed) and some areas are dated and will need updating. Council Tax is band F and the local recorded crime level is high, which may concern some purchasers. Access is via a communal entrance off 31 Castle Street and the plot is relatively small for a family seeking extensive grounds.
Overall, this is a character-rich period home with flexible accommodation and an independent annexe. It suits buyers prepared to modernise to their taste who value a central Farnham position, substantial internal space (around 1,540 sq ft) and a private garden.
