Description

This three-bedroom home presents an exciting opportunity for renovation and investment in a desirable area. Positioned on a quiet residential street, the property features spacious rooms and ample potential for extension, contingent upon obtaining the necessary planning permissions. The driveway allows for convenient off-street parking, while the interior includes a generous living room flowing into a bright kitchen with access to the rear garden. The addition of a glazed garden room further enhances the property's appeal. With three well-proportioned bedrooms and essential amenities including a bathroom and separate W/C, this home is truly a canvas for new owners to modernize according to their vision. Having been maintained by the same family for generations, it now requires full modernization; buyers should be aware that improvements are necessary, including addressing the original roof condition as noted by previous owners. The location near Commonswood Primary School and local shops, combined with excellent transport links to A414 and A1M, makes this property ideal for families looking to establish roots in Welwyn Garden City. The town's history as a well-planned garden city adds further charm, making it an attractive investment.
