5 bed detached house for sale

Guildford, Surrey GU1

Oak House is an exceptional and beautifully presented low maintenance newly built, family residence, combining elegant red-brick architecture with traditional tile-hung elevations. Constructed in 2018 to an exacting standard, the property offers both charm and sophistication, with a thoughtfully designed layout ideal for modern living. Tucked away along a private road behind electric gates, the house immediately impresses with its commanding presence and generous gravelled driveway, offering ample parking alongside a detached double garage. Above the garage is a versatile home office or studio space, providing an ideal environment for remote work or creative pursuits.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a spacious and light-filled entrance hall, setting the tone for the rest of the home. From here, two principal reception rooms branch off, offering refined and comfortable spaces for both formal entertaining and relaxed family gatherings. A cloakroom is also conveniently accessed from the hallway.

At the heart of the home lies a magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area — a true centrepiece of contemporary design. This space is cleverly zoned while maintaining a seamless flow, with a sleek, modern kitchen centred around a large island, perfect for both everyday use and entertaining. The dining and living areas are equally impressive, all framed by expansive bi-fold doors that stretch nearly the full width of the room. These open out to the garden, flooding the space with natural light and creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts a luxurious principal suite, complete with a stylish en suite bathroom and a spacious walk-in wardrobe. Three further generously proportioned double bedrooms can also be found on this floor, all serviced by a well-appointed family bathroom. Rising to the second floor, a fifth bedroom provides excellent additional accommodation and features its own private en suite, making it ideal for guests or older children seeking a degree of independence.

The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and is designed to offer both tranquillity and entertainment. A wraparound sun terrace extends directly from the house, providing ample space for outdoor dining and relaxation. One corner is dedicated to a luxurious hot tub and a fully equipped outdoor bar — perfect for hosting gatherings during the warmer months. Beyond the terrace, the garden opens onto a flat, south-east facing lawn, neatly bordered on one side by mature trees and on the other by an attractive red-brick wall, ensuring a high degree of privacy and seclusion throughout the day.

Despite its peaceful setting, Oak House is perfectly positioned for access to Guildford and beyond.
