    Description

    Discover a truly unique three-bedroom extended house on Guessens Road, Welwyn Garden City, once home to Sir Ebenezer Howard, offered chain-free.

    Nestled on the highly sought-after Guessens Road, this distinguished three-bedroom house presents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of Welwyn Garden City's rich heritage. This extended residence holds a significant place in local history, having once been the cherished home of Sir Ebenezer Howard OBE, the visionary creator of the Garden City movement. The property seamlessly blends its historical gravitas with modern living, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere for its next custodians.

    Upon entering, one is greeted by a sense of space and light that flows throughout the ground floor. The two reception rooms provide versatile living areas, perfect for both relaxed family evenings and more formal entertaining. Each space has been thoughtfully designed to maximise comfort and functionality, allowing for various furniture arrangements and personal touches. The extension has enhanced the property's footprint, creating an expansive feel that is both practical and aesthetically pleasing. The layout encourages a natural flow, making it ideal for contemporary lifestyles. A convenient downstairs shower room adds to the practicality of the ground floor.

    The heart of this home extends to a well-appointed kitchen, designed with contemporary modern aesthetics for both everyday convenience and culinary exploration. Upstairs, the three bedrooms offer peaceful retreats, each providing ample space and natural light. The main bedroom, in particular, offers a tranquil haven with its own en-suite bathroom, designed with a contemporary modern finish. The additional bedrooms are perfectly suited for family members, guests, or as a dedicated home office, served by a further well-appointed family bathroom, also featuring a contemporary modern design.

    One of the most compelling attributes of this property is its exceptional town centre location. Residents will appreciate the unparalleled convenience of having Welwyn Garden City's vibrant array of shops, restaurants, and amenities just a short stroll away. This prime position ensures that daily errands and leisure activities are effortlessly accessible, fostering a truly convenient lifestyle. For those who commute, the property's proximity to the train station is a significant advantage, offering direct links to London and beyond, making it an ideal choice for professionals seeking an easy journey into the capital.

    The exterior of the property is equally impressive. The meticulously landscaped garden provides a serene outdoor sanctuary, perfect for al fresco dining, gardening, or simply unwinding amidst nature. Thoughtful planting and design create a beautiful backdrop for outdoor living, offering a private escape from the hustle and bustle of town life. Furthermore, the property benefits from a private drive and a garage, providing secure off-street parking and additional storage solutions, a valuable asset in such a central location.

    Offered to the market chain-free, this presents a streamlined purchasing process for prospective buyers, allowing for a smoother and potentially quicker transaction. This unique house on Guessens Road is more than just a home; it is an opportunity to own a piece of local heritage, perfectly situated for modern living in one of Hertfordshire's most desirable Garden Cities. It invites you to imagine a life of comfort, convenience, and historical charm, all within a beautifully presented and extended residence.
