A remarkably high spec, spacious apartment in a sought-after building, conveniently located in the centre of Guildford.
Description
Steeped in history and originally conceived by renowned Victorian architect Norman Shaw, Hitherbury House has been thoughtfully extended and restored with exceptional care. Working alongside The Arts and Crafts Movement in Surrey and The Guildford Society, the property has been brought to an outstanding contemporary standard while preserving its architectural heritage.
Flat 4 is a remarkable first floor apartment, once showcased as the building’s original show home. Extending to over 1,500 sq ft, it offers beautifully presented accommodation throughout and is available to the market with no onward chain.
The heart of the apartment is the impressive open plan kitchen and reception room, stretching over 38 ft and opening onto a rear balcony. The kitchen features modern cabinetry, integrated appliances and a substantial central island, creating an ideal space for both cooking and entertaining.
The principal bedroom is a generous and elegantly proportioned room with large windows, fitted wardrobes and its own en suite shower room. A further double bedroom sits opposite, complemented by a well appointed family bathroom.
Externally, the property benefits from allocated off street parking.
