Horseshoe Lane West, Merrow, GU1

Bungalow

£1,200,000

“This is a substantial and flexible property, set back from the road behind a carriage driveway and enjoying a mature rear garden that gives a real sense of privacy. The layout works well for a number of buyer profiles, with generous ground floor living areas and the flexibility to use rooms in different ways as needs change. Upstairs, the first floor offers additional bedrooms and storage, making good use of the roof space without compromising comfort. Its proximity to several popular schools will be a key draw for many buyers, while the driveway, garage and garden all add to the practical appeal of the house.” James Boyden – Chantries & Pewleys

The ground floor is spacious with a flexible layout which allows a number of living options, consisting of a large reception room with direct access to the conservatory with views overlooking the rear garden. Adjacent to the main reception room is a kitchen/breakfast room offering ample worktop and storage space, while a separate utility room keeps everyday tasks neatly out of sight. The two principal bedrooms can also be found on the ground floor along with a family bathroom, separate WC and various storage cupboards.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three further bedrooms, making good use of the roof space along with a further WC. Eaves storage has been thoughtfully incorporated, helping to keep the rooms practical and uncluttered. 

Mostly laid to lawn, the rear garden is a particular highlight. Mature planting provides a strong sense of privacy and offers well-established borders. There is also a shed, greenhouse and a large patio area, ideal for entertaining. Alongside the carriage driveway, the property also benefits from a garage with electric door.

Merrow shops are within easy reach and provide a splendid range of local shops including an M&S and chemist. Schooling is excellent with several within walking distance including Merrow Infant School, Merrow Junior School, St Thomas of Canterbury, Boxgrove Primary, St Peters and George Abbot. Guildford with its famous cobbled High Street and Castle is located approximately 2 miles away, providing an extensive range of leisure and recreational facilities with a wide range of shops, restaurants, the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, a cinema complex, G Live, Surrey Sports Park and Spectrum Leisure Centre. 

Transport links are excellent with a regular bus service into Guildford and 2 stations including the mainline station connecting to London Waterloo in approximately 37 minutes. The A3 is closeby linking to the M25 motorway, Gatwick and Heathrow Airports.
