Carroll Avenue, Merrow, Guildford, Surrey, GU1

A superbly extended and beautifully-presented character detached family home positioned in a particularly sought-after location within Merrow Village. The property offers tastefully-presented, spacious living accommodation complete with high-end fixtures and fittings, and enjoys open outlooks over the large, established gardens.

The ground-floor space in the property has been extended to create a stunning, open-plan kitchen/dining/family enjoying views over the garden and access via bi-fold doors, directly onto the terrace. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units with beautifully honed corian worktops over and a range of fully integrated appliances. Beautifully-rich oak flooring leads down to the fantastic, versatile family space, full of light streaming through the Velux-style windows and expanse of doors. This room is the real ‘hub of the home’ and has options for dining as well as relaxed seating. Double doors provide access into a useful study, or potential TV room, again, benefitting from garden access. Further storage and space for appliances is catered for in the good-sized utility room, just off the kitchen. A more formal sitting room is found to the front of the house, featuring a large bay window and an attractive fireplace with an open fire which provides a real focal point. A cloakroom off the hallway completes the ground floor accommodation.

On the first-floor, there are three double bedrooms. The front aspect principal room features a lovely bay window and has the benefit of a dressing room as well as a well-appointed en-suite shower room. The second bedroom overlooks the garden and has a generous-sized dressing room, and the third bedroom is also double-sized and enjoys a garden view. Finally, the luxuriously fitted, contemporary-style family bathroom features a bath as well as a separate shower enclosure.

The garden provides a secluded, sunny spot in which to relax. A terrace leading from the family room offers an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, and the large lawn is surrounded by mature flower and shrub borders. To the front, the driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles.

The property is located on a residential road with unrestricted parking which leads onto Merrow Downs with lovely walking areas. The local shopping parade is about ½ mile away and London Road railway station with connections to Waterloo is approximately 1.5 miles away. Access onto the A3 northbound carriageway to London can be found from the outskirts of Burpham and Guildford's historic Town Centre lies within two miles with its two stations having services to Waterloo and the South Coast.
