Description

Situated in a highly sought-after area of Welwyn Garden City, this three-bedroom house offers excellent potential for buyers looking to create their ideal home. The property features a spacious kitchen/diner and a generously sized separate living room, which benefits from sliding patio doors leading out to the garden—perfect for easy access to the patio, ideal for outdoor entertaining.

The property also offers side access to the rear garden and a private driveway, providing valuable off-street parking. The front garden is low-maintenance, adding to the overall convenience.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom that would benefit from some updating, offering a great opportunity for personalisation. The house comes with double-glazed windows and a back boiler for efficient heating.

The mature rear garden is a key feature, with a patio area perfect for summer barbecues, as well as a garden shed—ideal for storing bikes, tools, or garden equipment. Situated on a quiet road with a welcoming community feel, the property offers peaceful living while being close to local amenities.
