Warren Road, Guildford, Surrey, GU1

Tucked away in a small and private enclave off Warren Road, 3 Downside Place forms part of an attractive late Victorian building originally constructed as the clubhouse for the early Guildford Golf Club. Over time the building was thoughtfully converted into a small collection of homes, creating a peaceful and distinctive residential setting that blends period character with modern living. The property retains a sense of its heritage, with notably high ceilings and well-proportioned rooms throughout, while offering comfortable and practical accommodation suited to contemporary life.

The ground floor provides a welcoming and well-balanced layout. A spacious sitting room offers an elegant reception space with a feature fireplace and large windows that allow natural light to fill the room. To the rear of the house, the kitchen flows naturally into a striking dining room extension where vaulted ceilings and rooflights create a wonderfully bright and airy atmosphere. This impressive space enjoys views across the garden and is perfectly suited to both everyday family life and entertaining, with large windows and doors allowing the interior to connect seamlessly with the outside. A utility room, WC, separate cloakroom, and an understairs cupboard enhance the practicality of the ground floor. The utility room also provides access to a cellar, currently used by the owners as a wine store, offering valuable additional storage space.

Upstairs, the property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms arranged around a central landing together with a family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted storage and an ensuite shower room, while the second bedroom also includes fitted wardrobes. The third bedroom provides additional flexible space for family members, guests or those needing a home office.

One of the most appealing aspects of the property is its private rear garden, which is both generous and beautifully arranged. Immediately behind the house lies a paved terrace ideal for outdoor dining and relaxing, from which steps lead down to a secluded lawn bordered by mature planting. The garden enjoys a peaceful and sheltered feel, with established greenery creating a delightful setting and a tucked-away seating area providing a quiet place to sit and enjoy the surroundings.

The property also benefits from an attached single garage together with private parking, a valuable feature in this desirable residential area.

Downside Place is quietly positioned off Warren Road on the eastern side of Guildford, close to the open landscapes of the North Downs and Merrow Downs which offer wonderful walking routes and easy access to the surrounding countryside. Guildford’s historic town centre lies within easy reach and provides an excellent range of shops, restaurants, cafés and cultural amenities, together with a mainline railway station offering fast and frequent services to London Waterloo. The area is also well regarded for its excellent schools, both state and independent, making it a particularly attractive location for families.

Combining period character, generous accommodation and a peaceful yet convenient setting close to both the town centre and surrounding countryside, 3 Downside Place represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive home in one of Guildford’s most desirable residential areas.
