Guildford, Surrey GU1

Offered with no onward chain, this modern two bedroom, two bathroom apartment occupies an upper floor position within Austen House, in a convenient Guildford town centre location close to the mainline station. Completely redecorated throughout, with brand-new carpeting fitted in September 2026, the property benefits from lift access, secure underground parking and a private curved balcony with views towards Guildford Cathedral.

The entrance hall provides useful built-in storage and leads through to a spacious open-plan kitchen, sitting and dining room. The curved exterior wall and windows on two sides give the room a distinctive shape and plenty of natural light, while wood-effect flooring runs throughout. There is space for both seating and a dining table, with glazed doors opening onto the balcony.

The kitchen is fitted with contemporary gloss-fronted units complemented by contrasting work surfaces and an upstand. Built-in cooking appliances include two ovens, together with an electric hob and stainless steel extractor hood. The open-plan layout connects the kitchen with the living space, making it ideal for everyday use and entertaining.

Both bedrooms are doubles, with neutral décor and carpeted flooring. The principal bedroom benefits from a built-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room, fitted with a glazed shower enclosure, wall-mounted basin, WC and heated towel rail. A separate bathroom is accessed from the hallway and features a bath with an overhead shower and glass screen, together with a basin, WC and tiled finishes.

The private balcony follows the curve of the building, providing space for outdoor seating and enjoying the outlook across the surrounding area towards the cathedral. Decked flooring and glass-panelled balustrades complement the apartment’s contemporary style. Secure underground allocated parking is a particularly useful feature in this central setting, with lift access adding to the convenience.
