Dunsdon Avenue, Guildford, GU2

'The exceptional kitchen and family space really sets this house apart, with its bespoke finish, natural light and direct connection to the west-facing garden. The principal suite and detached office and gym add another level of flexibility, while the proximity to Guildford station and excellent schools makes this a particularly compelling family home'. Chris Dean - Chantries and Pewleys

The exceptional kitchen, dining and family space is the defining feature of this thoughtfully extended home. Designed to make the most of its west-facing aspect, the impressive rear extension combines generous proportions, bespoke craftsmanship and an abundance of natural light, creating a striking yet welcoming space at the heart of the house.

A series of large rooflights brings daylight deep into the room, while full-width bi-fold doors frame the landscaped garden and open directly onto the paved terrace. The west-facing orientation is a particular advantage, with afternoon and evening sunshine enhancing the connection between the interior and outside space. At its centre sits a bespoke kitchen by Coeur Kitchens, with elegant cabinetry, integrated appliances and generous work surfaces. A beautifully designed peninsula incorporates an induction hob and breakfast bar seating, creating a sociable focal point, while an integrated wine fridge adds a considered finishing touch.

Beyond, the dining area accommodates a generous table, with an adjoining family seating area overlooking the garden. Bespoke fitted cabinetry provides discreet television storage, while air conditioning ensures comfort during the warmer months.

The entrance hall offers discreet under stairs storage, while a separate sitting room features a square bay window, fireplace and fitted cabinetry. Sliding doors connect to the main living space, allowing the room to be opened up or enjoyed independently as a more formal reception room, snug or games room. A well-appointed utility room with side access and a separate cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Four bedrooms are arranged across the upper two floors. The principal suite features a generous bedroom, walk-in wardrobe and contemporary en-suite shower room, while two further first-floor bedrooms share a well appointed family bathroom. On the second floor, a fourth bedroom sits beneath the roofline, with built-in storage and its own en-suite shower room. A Velux window brings natural light onto the staircase and landing.

The landscaped, west-facing garden provides an attractive extension of the living accommodation, with a generous paved terrace, lawn and established planting. A detached outbuilding incorporates a dedicated home office, separate gym/bar area and substantial storage, offering valuable additional space away from the main house.

Side access, off-street parking and an electric vehicle charging point complete the property.
