Boxgrove House, Epsom Road, Guildford, GU1

Boxgrove House is set well back from the road, accessed via a private driveway that leads you into a charming front courtyard. With a Mediterranean-inspired ambiance, the courtyard is surrounded by mature borders and features elegant York stone paving, adding a sense of tranquillity and seclusion. Stone steps lead to the grand front door, while there is also direct access to the rear garden from the courtyard. This Victorian character house, a beautifully presented five/six-bedroom, three-bathroom semi-detached residence, offers a stunning blend of period charm and contemporary comfort. Thoughtfully updated, the property retains key original features such as classic sash windows, detailed picture rails, and a beautiful decorative fireplace, all reflective of its rich architectural heritage. The home is nestled within a well-maintained private garden, complete with a garage and off-street parking, and benefits from its proximity to Guildford Town Centre, Merrow Downs, and excellent transport links.

Side access from the front of the property ensures easy movement between the front and rear outdoor spaces, making it ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. The centrepiece of the home is the expansive kitchen-dining room, a recent addition by the current owner. Featuring a stylish shaker-style kitchen with integrated appliances, the space is enhanced by bi-fold doors that open onto the terrace, seamlessly connecting the indoors with the outdoors. High ceilings and a window lantern ensure the room is filled with natural light, creating a bright and airy environment.
