2 bed semi-detached house for sale

Milford, Godalming, Surrey GU8

A picture-perfect red brick facade with a quintessential canopied doorway, decorative detailing and lintels conjures a wealth of character and heritage. Semi-detached and chain free, this is a home that whilst well-presented is ready to be refreshed to perfectly reflect your own tastes and needs.

Step inside and you’ll instantly find yourself in one of two excellently sized reception rooms. In the light filled sitting room a wrought iron fireplace with a tiled hearth and elegant mantelpiece instantly creates a homely centrepiece. Classic casement windows lend a cottage feel and wide chimney breast alcoves with floating timber shelves have ample space to add a choice of consoles or cabinetry.

Explore further and across an inner hallway a separate dining room echoes the generous proportions making it equally ideal for everyday meals or evenings spent catching up with friends. Ready to be reinstated with an open fire or wood burner, a large fireplace is framed by the timber tones of a wood mantelpiece and is currently fitted with double doors that open to reveal hidden storage. The thoughtful inclusion of a glazed door allows a lovely amount of sunlight and garden views to be carried through and gives an easy flowing connection to the adjoining kitchen where a wealth of country style cabinets and matching countertops wrap-around housing a butler sink and freestanding appliances. Whilst currently a breakfast bar is a great place for a morning coffee and the impressive dimensions easily accommodate a large traditional dresser, there’s also plenty of potential for this space to be tweaked and updated into somewhere that you’ll love to spend time. Opening onto a south-west facing patio, it’s easy to see that when reconfigured or extended further (STPP) with French or sliding doors it could offer a fantastic interplay with the gardens.

Sitting back from the dining room, a curved staircase rises to the first floor where a central landing unfolds to either side onto a duo of beautifully sunlit bedrooms. At the front of the house a notably sized main double bedroom has its own focal point period fireplace and an abundance of space for a selection of wardrobes and a desk/study area. Versatile to your needs as a dedicated home office or dressing room, the large single bedroom sits to the rear looking out over the greenery of the garden and has the added benefit of recessed wardrobes. Together these two rooms provide plenty of flexibility for a young family, downsizers or those who would simply love to have a guest room. A first-floor bathroom and ground floor shower room can be transformed to give deluxe contemporary finishing touches.

Outside
The glazed door of the kitchen tempts you out onto the considerable paved patio of a south-west facing garden that adds an inviting place to escape from a busy day. Ideally sized for you to sit and start the weekend with a morning coffee or enjoy al fresco dining with friends and family, the patio connects to an established lawn bordered by beds of mature shrubs and high fencing. To the rear a statuesque blossom tree adds a pretty pop of seasonal colour on a second patio that has a substantial timber shed.

At the front of this charming period home a brick paved hardstanding provides the convenience of off-road parking for one vehicle while a flowerbed with established shrubs and evergreen conifer combines with the canopied doorway to give a charming introduction.
