We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Once the coach house and chapel to Braboeuf Manor on the Portsmouth Road, this historic and architecturally fascinating property offers much un-tapped potential and the opportunity to create a sensational and completely unique home.
The Moat House enjoys a highly desirable position just to the south of Guildford’s historic town centre, set in a secluded position surrounded by mature trees, just off the Portsmouth Road.
This location strikes an ideal balance between accessibility and privacy, offering a tucked-away, country feel while remaining within easy reach of the town’s vibrant amenities, schools and transport.
The surrounding area is characterised by attractive homes, leafy outlooks and proximity to the River Wey, with pleasant walks and green spaces close at hand.
Guildford’s High Street can be accessed on foot - either along the Portsmouth Road or by stepping down to the River Wey towpath to enjoy the beautiful scenery on route.
Central Guildford provides an excellent selection of shops, restaurants, cafés and cultural attractions.
This convenient proximity allows one to take full advantage of the lifestyle the town has to offer, while returning to a quieter, more relaxed setting at the end of the day.
Guildford mainline station is also within easy walking distance, offering fast and frequent services to London Waterloo in approximately 35 minutes.
This makes the property particularly well suited to commuters, combining the charm of a Surrey town with straightforward access to the capital.
Travelling by car, the property benefits from excellent road connections; the nearby A3 provides a direct route to both London and the south coast, while the M25 is within easy reach, enhancing accessibility to the wider motorway network.
