Denzil Road, Guildford, GU2

'From the street, it’s understated. Inside, the property opens up into an incredibly light and open space. For me, the real highlight is the open-plan kitchen/ dining room, this is a lovely bright, open space, perfect for family meals or entertaining with friends'. Pippa Barnes - Chantries and Pewleys

What sets this house apart is how it unfolds beyond its initial presentation, revealing a thoughtful renovation that combines contemporary living with the character of the original Victorian home. The result is a bright and adaptable house, designed around modern family life, all within moments of Guildford station and within the catchment area of the highly sought-after Guildford County School.

The ground floor has been arranged with everyday living in mind. A bright entrance hall welcomes you into the house, with a convenient ground floor W/C positioned off the hallway. To the front, a separate living room provides a comfortable space to relax away from the main activity of the home.

Towards the rear, the house opens into an impressive kitchen and dining space that naturally becomes the focal point of daily life. There is ample room to cook, dine and entertain, while skylights and double doors to the garden ensure the space remains filled with natural light throughout the day. Finished with quartz worktops, Miele ovens and hob, and carefully designed cabinetry, the kitchen delivers both practicality and a refined finish. Underfloor heating runs throughout the extension, while electric Velux rooflights, a Quooker tap with integrated water filtration and a range of thoughtful upgrades enhance both the comfort and functionality of the space.

Below, a useful basement provides valuable additional storage. As well as offering space for household items and seasonal belongings, it also houses the water softener, water pump and immersion heater, keeping the operational elements of the home neatly out of sight.

Upstairs, the accommodation is arranged across two floors, providing four bedrooms and two bathrooms. This layout offers flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or home working. The principal bedroom occupies the top floor, creating a more private retreat, while the remaining bedrooms are well served by the family bathroom and ensuite facilities. Throughout, the renovation has been carried out with consistency and attention to detail, creating a home that feels cohesive and carefully considered.

Outside, the south-west facing garden has been landscaped across a series of tiers, creating distinct areas for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. The design adds both visual interest and practicality, while a garden shed provides useful storage, including space for bicycles. It feels like a natural extension of the house rather than simply an area beyond it.
