Description

A rarely available detached home on the sought-after West Side, offering generous space, beautiful gardens, and exciting scope for modernisation.

Launch Event: Saturday 14 June 2025, 09:30 – 16:00. Please call to arrange your private viewing appointment.

Situated on the highly desirable West Side of Welwyn Garden City, this attractive double-fronted detached residence has been cherished by the same family for over 50 years. Now brought to market for the first time in decades, it offers a wonderful opportunity to modernise and personalise a generously proportioned home in one of the town’s most sought-after locations.

The ground floor comprises a welcoming Lobby with cloakroom WC, leading into a central Hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. There are two formal reception rooms, a Sitting Room with a feature open fireplace, bay window, and French doors opening onto the rear patio, and a Dining Room with a serving hatch to the kitchen and views across the garden. The Kitchen/Breakfast Room offers ample potential, with fitted cabinetry, sink, plumbing for a washing machine, and space for a dining table and breakfast bar. To the rear, an extended Play Room provides flexible additional living space, along with a ground floor Bathroom and access to the rear garden.

On the first floor, the property offers five bedrooms. The Principal Bedroom enjoys garden views and fitted wardrobes, as do Bedrooms two and five. Bedroom two is a bright dual-aspect double room, while Bedroom three overlooks the rear garden. Bedroom four and Bedroom five are front-facing, with the latter ideal as a study or nursery. A family Bathroom completes the accommodation.

Externally, the house is set back behind manicured front lawns and benefits from off-street parking for multiple vehicles. The rear garden is a true highlight, beautifully landscaped with lush lawn, mature hedgerow borders, and a paved patio seating area accessed from the rear reception rooms. A single garage is accessible via a pedestrian side door or traditional up-and-over door to the front.

Guessens Road is perfectly placed just a short walk from the town centre and its amenities including John Lewis, Waitrose, Sainsbury’s, and the Howard Shopping Centre. Welwyn Garden City’s mainline rail station is also within walking distance, offering fast services to London Kings Cross in approximately 25 minutes. The renowned Applecroft Primary School is nearby, and commuters will appreciate excellent road links via the A1(M) and A414.
