Description

This charming three-bedroom property, located in the desirable west side of Garden City, presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment. Just a short stroll from local shops, transportation links, and various amenities, this home is ideally positioned for both personal use and future development potential. As you enter through the wooden front door adorned with Georgian-style glass panels, you are welcomed into a hallway that leads to the main living areas. The dual-aspect lounge features classic coving and offers an inviting space with a feature gas fireplace as its focal point. The abundance of natural light enhances the character of this room, making it a cozy spot for relaxation or entertaining. Adjacent to the lounge is the dining room, which benefits from similar charm with its double-glazed Georgian-style window overlooking the front. This flows seamlessly into the kitchen, where modern essentials meet ample opportunity for customization. The kitchen includes solid wood block work surfaces and integrated appliances such as a stainless steel Zanussi oven and Bosch dishwasher. With some updates and creative vision, this space could become a contemporary culinary haven. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, each equipped with double-glazed windows that ensure comfort year-round. The main bedroom features built-in storage along with housing for the Baxi combination boiler—an efficient addition. The potential to reconfigure these spaces allows for personalization that suits your needs or those of future tenants. The bathroom is functional yet offers scope for enhancement; it includes a shower-over-bath setup alongside practical storage solutions and stylish vanity options waiting to be updated. Outside, the rear garden extends approximately 70 feet and is primarily laid to lawn, bordered by mixed hedging that provides privacy. A paved patio area invites outdoor living while steps lead down to further garden space featuring a large timber workshop—perfect for storage or hobby projects. The gated side access offers convenience when moving equipment or garden supplies. The front of the property boasts a tidy lawn area with an accessible pathway leading to the entrance. With potential extensions subject to planning permission (STPP), this property not only accommodates comfortable living but also serves as an excellent investment opportunity in a sought-after location. This freehold property falls under Council Tax Band E within Welwyn & Hatfield Council jurisdiction. It awaits new owners who see its full potential and wish to put their personal touch on it while enjoying all that Garden City has to offer.
