Show more "Darfield Road in Guildford is a purpose-built development managed on the residents’ behalf by Anchor. At Darfield Road you can live your life to the full, secure in the knowledge that there is an estate manager who will provide essential support around the maintenance of your property. They will be on hand to make sure the estate you live in is safe and welcoming. And for additional peace of mind, you’ll be linked to a 24-hour emergency alarm call service should you need it.

Should you decide to sell your property in the future we can help by providing information required by solicitors and dealing with any complex enquiries. If you’d like more information about Darfield Road, please get in touch. We’d be delighted to hear from you." Show less
