2 bed terraced house for sale

George Road, Guildford GU1

26 George Road is an attractive Victorian home which has been updated by the current owners, combining the character of a period property with a contemporary twist.

Arranged over three levels and extending to approximately 925 sq ft, the house offers more accommodation than might first be apparent.

The front door opens into a welcoming dining room with stripped wooden floorboards. Beyond is a separate living room, again with exposed timber flooring, where a wood-burning stove forms the focal point of the room. To the rear, the kitchen has been comprehensively refitted with a range of neutral shaker-style cabinetry, generous work surfaces, tiled splashbacks and an integrated electric oven with gas hob and cooker hood over. A window overlooking the garden has the sink positioned beneath, while a door provides direct access outside.

The property also benefits from a basement, currently utilised as a home office. This provides valuable additional space and offers scope for use as an additional reception room, hobby room or storage area, with potential for further conversion subject to any necessary consents and regulations.

On the first floor are two bedrooms, including a well-proportioned principal bedroom to the front. The second bedroom is currently arranged as a nursery and would work equally well as a guest bedroom or study. Completing the accommodation is a stylish four-piece family bathroom comprising a separate shower enclosure, bath, WC and vanity unit with wash basin. It is also worth noting that the bathroom is accessed independently from the landing, rather than through a bedroom, as can be the case with some similar period homes in the area.

The property also lends itself well to a loft conversion, subject to the usual planning permissions, building regulations and any other necessary consents, offering the potential to create additional accommodation if required.

Outside, the house has a small enclosed frontage, while the rear garden is larger than average for a property of this type. Immediately adjoining the house is a paved terrace with ample space for outdoor dining, leading onto an area of lawn bordered by established shrubs and planting. For a home so close to the centre of Guildford, the garden provides a welcome sense of space and privacy.
