A new 485-home residential quarter, Arch & Bloom, is being launched in Guildford’s High Street, offering studios to three-bedroom apartments alongside cafés, shops, gardens and residents’ amenities in a well-connected town-centre location.
Arch & Bloom is situated on the High Street, within walking distance of Surrey University, and comprises a timeless collection of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, all immediately available for reservation.
The quarter is developed by Berkeley Group, which builds homes and neighbourhoods across London, Birmingham and the South of England. It specialises in brownfield regeneration, reviving underused land to create unique, sustainable, nature-rich places where communities thrive and people can enjoy a high quality of life.
Set within 6.6 acres, Arch & Bloom brings new properties to a vibrant new neighbourhood with lively cafés, curated shops and considered private residents’ amenities. A place that has been designed for connection, ease and everyday enjoyment around public squares, landscaped gardens and new retail spaces.
Abbie Walker, sales manager in the New Homes team at Savills Guildford, says: “Investment into the centre of Guildford has opened up a wonderful opportunity, via this development, for those aspiring to live within a vibrant part of the city and walking distance of local amenities.”
Guildford is a historic Surrey town where riverside calm, hilltop views and hidden passageways shape everyday life. It is a town with deep roots, softened by water and greenery, with an exceptional shopping experience. Sitting just 27 miles southwest of central London, the town is well connected with excellent transport links – Friary bus station is two minutes away, and Guildford station is just a seven-minute walk. Guildford is one of Surrey’s strongest education hubs with an excellent selection of schools as well as Surrey University on the doorstep.
Completion of the first phase of the site is expected in Autumn 2028.
