Millmead Terrace, Guildford, GU2

'The appeal of this home goes beyond its location. The current owners have restored and refined it with exceptional care, choosing timeless materials and understated finishes that celebrate its Victorian character'. Pippa Barnes - Chantries and Pewleys

The accommodation retains the character and proportions expected of a Victorian home, with two separate reception rooms providing flexible living space. The dining room links naturally to the thoughtfully redesigned bespoke kitchen, where painted shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops and a range cooker combine traditional styling with modern practicality. A converted basement provides valuable additional space, suited to a home office, gym, media room or hobbies.

Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms, both retaining original fireplaces, served by a contemporary family bathroom. Outside, the private rear garden has been designed for straightforward maintenance, with mature planting, gravelled seating areas and a secluded terrace creating an inviting setting to relax or entertain.
