Banders Rise, Merrow, GU1

Banders Rise is a quiet residential address in Merrow, a leafy suburb close to Guildford's eastern edge with the Downs and the golf course on the doorstep. This Victorian terraced house offers four bedrooms and the sort of proportions that suit a growing family.

The period character is clear in the high ceilings, original fireplace and wooden floors of the reception room. The kitchen is practical and sits comfortably alongside the living space, and the four bedrooms upstairs include a principal that takes a large bed and wardrobes. Two bathrooms mean the household is rarely kept waiting.

Outside, the south-facing garden is a pleasant place to spend a summer afternoon, while the driveway and single garage deal with the parking and storage. The freehold title and a C rated EPC add to the appeal for a buyer planning to stay a long while.
