Set within the sought-after village of Shalford, this substantial family home occupies a pleasant position along Summersbury Drive, a quiet residential road just to the south of Guildford. Shalford is well regarded for its village atmosphere, everyday amenities, popular schools and easy access to both the Surrey Hills countryside and Guildford's comprehensive town-centre facilities. The property has been cherished by the same family for over 35 years, and now offers a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to settle into a spacious house with a warm, well-loved feel and excellent scope to enhance over time.
Approached via a wide driveway providing generous off-street parking and access to the attached garage with an electric door, the house sits back behind a lawned front garden and enclosed porch. Inside, the accommodation is arranged with family living in mind. A welcoming entrance hall includes a built-in coat cupboard and leads through to a large sitting room featuring double opening patio doors to the rear garden and a handcrafted Portland stone fireplace, creating a bright and relaxing main reception space. There is a further second lounge / family TV room offering a flexible additional living area, with built-in cupboards and ideal for children, informal living or home working. A separate dining room sits conveniently alongside the kitchen for easy entertaining and day-to-day meals.
The kitchen is an appealing hub of the home, fitted with extensive cabinetry and granite worktops throughout, centred around a substantial island and breakfast bar. The layout provides excellent storage and preparation space, with room for informal dining, and connects well to the rest of the ground floor. A useful utility room adds practicality, and there is a downstairs cloakroom, completing the ground-floor arrangement. Overall, the flow is well balanced, with distinct spaces for socialising, relaxing and family routines.
Upstairs, there are five bedrooms providing versatile options for families, guests and home working. The principal bedroom is a large double with a pleasant outlook and a well-appointed ensuite bathroom. Four of the five bedrooms benefit from large fitted wardrobes, offering excellent built-in storage across the first floor. Bedroom five can work equally well as a study or nursery alongside its bedroom use. The first floor is served by a family bathroom. Both bathrooms are finished with travertine marble tiles, and the ensuite includes a rain shower.
Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight: level, private and notably generous, bordered by mature hedging and planting that creates a lovely sense of seclusion. A paved terrace offers an ideal spot for al fresco dining, and the expansive lawn provides ample space for play, gardening or future landscaping plans. At the far end of the plot sits a charming summer house, perfect as a garden studio, hobby space or peaceful retreat, alongside a separate shed for storage.
In summary, this is a rarely available Shalford home offering size, setting and longevity of ownership in equal measure. With its established layout, large garden, driveway parking, garage with electric door and outbuildings, the property combines immediate comfort with clear potential, all in a village location that remains exceptionally convenient for Guildford, commuter routes and the open countryside.
