Set on a generous plot in Merrow Woods, this detached three‑bed home delivers well‑proportioned rooms, a large landscaped rear garden and off‑street parking for several cars including a garage and covered carport. The ground floor features a long living room with a stone‑surround fireplace and double doors to the garden, a separate dining room with a bay window, a practical kitchen with adjoining utility and a convenient cloakroom. Ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working and streaming.
Upstairs the principal bedroom offers fitted wardrobes and two further double bedrooms share a single family bathroom. The property is mid‑20th century and generally presented as a comfortable family house; double glazing was fitted after 2002 and the gas boiler feeds radiators throughout. There is clear scope to modernise the interior and extend (subject to planning permission), making this a good choice for buyers wanting to add value over time.
Important factual points: the house has cavity walls (insulation not assumed), a single main bathroom, and council tax is described as expensive. Buyers should expect typical maintenance and updating for a 1950s/60s build if planning major refurbishment. The large, private rear garden, proximity to highly rated local schools and easy access (approx. 1.5 miles) to Guildford town centre are strong practical benefits for families.
This home will suit buyers looking for space, a substantial garden and long‑term potential close to good schools and town amenities. It also appeals to purchasers wanting a ready‑to‑personalise property where improvements can increase comfort and resale value.
