Description
Tanglewood is a beautiful, well-appointed period home in a sought-after residential area in Guildford, overlooking Merrow Common. The property is Grade II listed, and originally dates from the late 16th / early 17th century. The property is being offered with no onward chain.
Tanglewood has been in the same family ownership for the last 61 years, and boasts excellent living accommodation extending over 2,000 sq ft, and has a number of retained character features including exposed beams, fireplaces and parquet flooring. It offers a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to update and modernise this much loved home.
Leading off from the entrance hall is the sitting room, measuring 22.6 ft x 13.5 ft, with large dual aspect windows overlooking the garden, also a beamed ceiling, brick fireplace and two useful cupboards.
The dining room, measuring 14.2 ft x 13.3 ft, is also accessed from the hall and has a beamed ceiling, parquet floor, brick fireplace and a large concealed cupboard fronted with a shelved glass display cabinet. The kitchen has a pleasant outlook over the back garden, and has a useful boot room attached.
There are five good sized bedrooms upstairs, four of which have exposed beams. Three of the bedrooms have dual aspect windows. The family bathroom, the two separate cloakrooms, and the shower room are all located on the ground floor.
The house is set back from the road and sits well within generous grounds that measure approximately 0.42 acre. A notable feature of the property are the beautiful mature gardens to the front and rear, with well-stocked flower beds and an exceptional selection of specimen trees providing a fabulous array of colour throughout the seasons, offering a green and private space, a unique feature for this location.
There is off street parking with a detached garage block, comprising two separate bays.
Location
The property occupies a convenient location on a sought after residential road, approximately 2 miles from Guildford’s High Street and within easy reach of all the local amenities of Burpham. Guildford offers a wide range of shopping, leisure and cultural amenities, including restaurants, the renowned Yvonne Arnaud theatre, G Live entertainment venue and a multiplex cinema.
Communications are good, with the A3 connecting with the M25 at Wisley for access to the airports and the national motorway network. In addition, the town benefits from two railway stations offering fast and frequent services into London Waterloo, with journey times from about 33 minutes.
Burpham Primary School and George Abbot School are within easy reach as well as the nearby Guildford High School, Royal Grammar School, Tormead and St Catherine’s.
Sporting and recreational opportunities include the Spectrum Sport and Leisure Centre, golf at a number of local clubs and rowing on the River Wey.
