SOLD 3 Bedroom Semi Detached Family Home, Guildford, Surrey

Welcome to our Property SOLD Guildford Surrey website
Here is a little bit about the local area, and distances to some of the great local schools as well as some links to local facilities, shopping and local business in the Guildford Area. Rather than duplicate a ton of info on here, the links take you to Up My Street.com where there is a ton of info about our local area. The highlights of which are below.

Local Nursery Schools Guildford Children's Center (1.2m) Wharf Nursery School (5.1m) Local Primary Schools Weyfield Primary School (0.2m) Northmead Junior School (0.6m) Local Secondary Schools Christ's College (0.3m) George Abbot School (1.1m) Local Train Stations Guildford (1.4m) Worplesdon (2.2m) Local Airports London Heathrow (15.9m) London Gatwick (18.1m) Old Farm Road and Surrounding Area Life in Old Farm road is great with lots of birdsong, wildlife and open space. Our Garden is over 150ft long! We have many song birds, Woodpigeons, Blue Tits, Robins etc. We have had several Hedgehogs, including one which used to come to our back door for scraps! Next door has a frog pond, with newts too. We think we also have a fox, but not sure totally, but we'd not be surprised!

The house is set a way back from the road and we have a drive for safe off road parking. Access to the side of the house is not shared, we just took the fence down between us and the neighbours to give the property more open aspect, although the gates and fencing into the back garden at the side is secure and lockable, perfect for preventing small children from wandering off. There's a park with newly refurbished swings, slides and climbing frames that has a fence around it preventing dogs from fouling. There's plenty of walks and cycling to be done and the Wey Navigation is about 10 minutes walk away making a lovely stroll on a Summer's day. All in all we love it here, it's far enough out of Guildford that the houses are not crammed in, but near enough to walk to the shops. We cannot stress how pleasant the road is, people often comment "Oh, you live in Bellfields" and we say "NO!" not that Bellfields is THAT bad, our road is the other side of the Woking Road which makes it... Well we never have tied it down, some Estate Agents say, "Jacobs Well" it's defintiely not that, or "Slyfield Green", no! We don't live on the Trading Estate! So we just say Old Farm Road and let other people decide. We love it here and would stay, it's just the 3 hours daily in school runs are just boring, wasteful and tedious so we want to move closer to our Daughter's school.

Location and Access
Even though our drive holds two cars we are a one car household, and regularly use public transport taking the bus into Guildford (10 minute journey) and the Train into London (40 minute journey) and find this easy and convenient. When we do use our car access to major roads is excellent, with the A3 being less than a 5 minute journey and the M25 less than 15 minutes away which gives you access to London, the home counties and beyond. Heathrow is 35 minutes away (peak times excepted!), Gatwick is 45 minutes away (again maybe more during rush hour) and Portsmouth is just about an hour and 20 minutes away. Guildford is the county town of Surrey and is therefore well catered for, with a thriving nightlife, excellent shopping facilities with well known high street chains as well as designer shops and local boutiques and businesses. It also has some great restaurants; Loch Fyne, Yellow River Cafe, Wagamama, The Thai Terrace, Rumwong (both superb) and many others plus great bars, pubs and entertainment. Providing something for everyone just a short distance away.

Conclusion
Within a short space of time we settled into our house and turned it into a home, it was very poor decoratively which is something we have worked hard to change and bring up to our taste and standards. However we feel that although we are sad to move it is the right time and know that whoever is lucky enough to become the new owners that they will appreciate this house, it's neighbours and location as much as we do/did and will easily stamp their own taste, style and personality on it with far less blood, sweat and tears (and money!) than we have. So feel free to explore the pages within and get a flavour of what to expect when you come visit us and take a tour around our humble abode. If you have any questions or want to book an appontiment to come and look around then feel free to email or phone us to arrange a mutually agreeable time to come and look around.
