Summary - 145, Stoke Road, GUILDFORD GU1 1EY
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Freehold two-bed with garden, parking and refurbishment potential in central Guildford.
Detached two-bedroom house in central Guildford, short walk to station
Set on Stoke Road in central Guildford, this detached two-bedroom house offers straightforward living with strong location benefits. The property sits a short walk from the mainline station and town centre, making it a practical choice for commuters or buyers seeking easy access to shops, schools and leisure facilities. Off-street parking and a private rear garden with two useful outbuildings add everyday convenience and flexible space for a home office or studio.
The house dates from the early 20th century and retains a simple, solid-brick form. Interiors are practical but will benefit from modernization: room sizes are average-to-small, and the layout is readily reconfigurable for increased living space or improved flow. One outbuilding includes a WC and the other is arranged as a summer house, both valuable extras for modern lifestyles.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property appears to require refurbishment and updating to kitchen, bathroom and finishes; walls are solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation; council tax is above average for the area; and local crime levels are reported as high. These factors are reflected in the scope for value-add — an opportunity for someone prepared to invest in upgrading to capture future upside in this desirable Guildford location.
Overall this home suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a centrally positioned, freehold detached house with development potential. With strong transport links and nearby top schools, the property offers convenience now and measurable potential once modernised.
