4 bed detached house for sale

Guildford, Surrey GU2

Ridgemount is one of Guildford’s most desirable residential roads, positioned on the attractive northern slope beneath the Cathedral and within easy reach of the town centre. This beautifully presented four-bedroom detached home occupies an excellent position along the road and offers generous, thoughtfully modernised accommodation with a wonderful south-westerly garden, a versatile outbuilding and far-reaching views towards the North Downs.

The house is within comfortable walking distance of Guildford High Street, the mainline station with its fast services to London Waterloo, and several highly regarded schools including Queen Eleanor’s, Onslow Infant School and Guildford County School, with Guildford’s well-known independent schools also easily accessible. The location combines convenience and tranquillity, offering swift access to the A3 while remaining a peaceful residential setting with greenery and open spaces close by.

On the ground floor, the property opens into a welcoming hallway with wood flooring, views to the rear garden, and access to the main reception areas. Positioned at the front of the house is a stylish sitting room featuring a wide bay window with plantation shutters and an attractive chimney breast that creates a natural focal point to the room. This space is decorated in a contemporary yet warm palette, making it ideal for both everyday relaxation and entertaining. To the rear, a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the heart of the home. This beautifully light space spans the entire width of the house, with bi-fold doors that open directly onto the garden. The contemporary kitchen is fitted with sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances and a generous island designed for relaxed seating and entertaining, while the adjoining living and dining areas enjoy lovely views of the garden. A downstairs cloakroom and internal access to the garage add further practicality.

Upstairs, the accommodation is particularly well balanced. The principal bedroom is a generous double that enjoys excellent natural light and a pleasant outlook. It benefits from its own ensuite shower room, which has been newly fitted with bespoke cabinetry, a large walk-in shower and high-quality finishes, and there is also a separate walk-in dressing room fitted with extensive hanging and drawer space to provide excellent storage. Bedroom two is another notably large double and also includes its own ensuite, making it ideal as a guest suite or an alternative main bedroom. Bedrooms three and four are comfortable doubles, well suited for children, guests or use as a home office, and a stylish family bathroom completes the first floor.

The rear garden is a standout feature. Facing south-west, it enjoys sunshine throughout the afternoon and evening and offers a real sense of privacy and space. From the kitchen, wide bi-folding doors lead onto a broad terrace that is perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the main lawn extends towards mature hedging and trees. From the garden, there are open views towards the North Downs, giving the space a wonderful backdrop and a feeling of openness that is rare this close to the town centre. At the far end sits a detached summer house that is currently used as a studio and gym but would equally suit those needing a peaceful home office or hobby room. To the front, the house provides driveway parking and access to the garage.

Ridgemount offers a superb blend of modern living, generous space and an exceptional position close to Guildford’s key amenities. With its well-considered layout, principal suite with separate dressing room and ensuite, further ensuite bedroom, large garden and scenic outlook, it represents a wonderful opportunity to secure a beautifully balanced family home in one of Guildford’s most sought-after locations.
