Inside this former Surrey theatre converted into a luxury flat
The Bellairs Playhouse once housed an acting school where Bill Nighy and Michael Ball trained – and it could now be yours, as one of eleven characterful apartments in the building is up for sale.
Located in Guildford, surrounded by the Surrey Hills AONB and just 30 miles from London, the apartment boasts a quirky exterior with a Victorian façade dating from 1885. It started life as a parish hall before being converted into a theatre in the late 19th century and housing Guildford School of Acting from 1945 to 2010.
Light and airy, the inside space has a more contemporary feel. The layout centres around an open-plan kitchen, which boasts a sleek design and breakfast bar for casual dining. Meanwhile, the living area with bifold doors leads onto a leafy terrace.
This flows into another more cosy reception room that can be separated with pocket doors, which also has its own private terrace. On the other side of the central hallway sits two spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, and another terrace garden area. Practical Karndean flooring has been used throughout the living spaces, with cosy carpets in the bedrooms and large windows throughout.
Guildford's popular high street is a short stroll away, with a great selection of shops and places to eat. Or for nature lovers, the nearby Surrey Hills AONB offers walks, stunning scenery and outdoor activities.
This property is currently on the market for £850,000 with Knight Frank.
