Gosden Hill Road, Burpham, GU4

Burpham is a well-liked residential neighbourhood, and this Edwardian semi-detached house shows why. It has the period details that give a home its personality, combined with practical, family-sized accommodation.

The reception room is a good size, with a fireplace, high ceilings and a large window that lets in plenty of daylight. The kitchen is well placed for the garden, and the wooden floors and original-style doors give the ground floor a warm, settled feel.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms, the principal bedroom being a particularly comfortable room, together with two bathrooms, which is a useful bonus in a house of this age. Bedroom two and the third bedroom would suit children, a home office or guests equally well.

The south-facing garden catches the sun for much of the day and is a real asset for summer entertaining or children's play. There is parking on the road outside. The house is close to Guildford's town centre and mainline station for London Waterloo, and the A3 and the River Wey are easily reached.
