A literally unique opportunity to purchase a property originally purchased by the current owner's family in 1862, and located within the very heart of Guildford Town Centre, being approx 0.1 m from Tunsgate Quarter.
The property currently offers a wealth of period charm and features, with accommodation including Sitting Room with feature bay window, fireplace and views over the rear gardens, Dining Room with views to the front and tiled fireplace, Day Room with picture window, and separate pantry and kitchen. To the first floor, there are 3 double bedrooms and a single bedroom/study, with views over the rear garden, and family bathroom with arguably the best view of Guildford!
The property benefits for an extensive 3 room basement accessed off the main hallway, with direct access to the rear gardens, which could potentially be converted into residential accommodation.
The gardens are a joy with the original Victorian layout preserved: there are lawned areas, a vegetable patch and the whole is screened from neighbouring properties by a Yew hedge and flint walls. Garaging is provided by the former 2 bay Coach House, where originally the pony and trap were housed, and this is accessed by a private driveway offering parking for numerous vehicles and bordered by a Locally Listed flint wall. To the top of the drive is a charming folly, built into the wall of the neighbouring Castle Nursery, which again affords views over the gardens, surrounding countryside and Guildford.
The Seller intends to provide an overage which would be triggered by the redevelopment to more than one dwelling.
NB The sale of Castle House is on behalf of a Connected Person to Wills & Smerdon.
Tenure: Leasehold 1000 year lease from 1670. 648 years unexpired, however, the Lease has been lost.
Guildford Borough Council Tax Band: G. Located in a Conservation Area
