7 bed detached house for sale

Tilehouse Road, Guildford GU4

19 Tilehouse Road was originally built in the 1950's, but it has been substantially altered and extended to provide huge family orientated accommodation arranged over the floors, by the present owners. The flexible accommodation now extends to almost 6,000 sq ft and there is also a detached home office with gym and a further outbuilding, both of which have plumbing and could easily form a self contained annexe. There is a very large and welcoming reception hall with cloakroom, a well proportioned sitting room, a study and a fantastic family room/games room. The kitchen/dining/family room overlooks the garden and all reception areas have glazed doors to the extensive entertaining terrace at the rear. On the first floor there are five bedrooms and four bathrooms, three of which are en suite. The second floor comprises a sixth bedroom suite, a games room and a further seventh bedroom or cinema room. There is also a utility room and a garage.

The garden is a lovely feature and extends to 0.4 acres with a large driveway with parking for several cars, leading to the garage, front door and utility room door. Access either side of the house leads to the delightful rear garden where there is a large entertaining terrace leading on to level lawns with a summerhouse, home office and further outbuilding with bar. There are fine trees and shrubs throughout providing seclusion and colour.
