A beautifully appointed, luxury apartment in a historic conversion on the doorstep of the River Wey in the heart of Guildford.
The Bellairs Apartments is a sympathetic conversion of just eleven unique apartments by Dorking-based Reside Developments. The original building with its imposing Victorian façade dates from 1885 and was originally called St Nicolas Parish Hall and Working Men's Club. In the late 19th century, it was converted into a theatre for amateur productions. It was more recently home to The Guildford School of Acting & Dance, originally known as the Grant-Bellairs School of Dance and Drama after its founders. Formed in London in 1935, the school was relocated to Guildford in 1945 as a result of World War II and the building became known as The Bellairs Playhouse. In 2010 the GSA became a subsidiary company of the University of Surrey and moved to new premises including a wonderful new theatre called the Ivy Arts Centre situated at the University Campus.With famous alumni such as Bill Nighy, Celia Imrie, Brenda Blethyn and Michael Ball having tread its boards in the past, the former home to the Guildford School of Acting is certainly rich in its history of the performing arts. Today, virtually every West End production features performers who trained at GSA.No. 4 is a luxury two-bedroom apartment. The spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living area is designed to make the most of flexible living and features tall ceilings and large windows allowing the light to flood in. There are two double bedrooms each serviced by its own bath/shower room. The master bedroom also has its own dressing area.There are two double bedrooms each serviced by its own bath/shower room.
