About
High Oaks Road, Welwyn Garden City, Al8 7Bj High Oaks Road is one of a handful of addresses on Welwyn Garden City's west side that consistently draws serious interest, and it is easy to see why.
Set back behind a wide driveway with parking for several cars, this is a substantial family home with genuine kerb appeal, a well considered layout, and the kind of plot that is increasingly difficult to find.
The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall with a ground floor cloakroom and access through to the principal rooms.
To the right, a triple aspect living room of nearly 24 feet provides the main entertaining space, with a bay window to the front, French doors opening onto the garden, and an attractive fireplace with an inset log burner that makes this room feel properly lived in rather than just presented.
A separate dining room sits to the left of the hallway alongside a study, giving the ground floor a flexibility that works whether you need formal space for guests or a quiet room to work from home.
The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of contemporary units and good worktop space.
It connects through to a large conservatory, which adds a bright, versatile room overlooking the rear garden.
On the other side, an internal door leads to the attached garage and, beyond that, a generous utility room at the rear with extensive fitted storage, worktops, and space for appliances, a practical addition that keeps the main kitchen clear.
Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged off a central landing. The principal bedroom is a good double with a modern en suite shower room.
Three further bedrooms, including one at nearly 15 feet by 11 feet, are served by a family bathroom and a separate WC. There is good storage throughout.
Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with multiple seating areas, ambient lighting, and external power points, clearly set up for year round use.
Mature planting provides screening and a pleasant outlook. To the front, the driveway provides off street parking alongside the garage. The location speaks for itself.
Sherrardspark Woods, Dellcott Tennis Club, and Welwyn Garden City Golf Club are all within easy reach on foot.
The town centre, including John Lewis, Waitrose, and Welwyn North station with fast services to King's Cross and Moorgate, is a short walk away.
The A1(M) gives straightforward access to the M25, Stansted, and Cambridge. Local schooling at both primary and secondary level is highly regarded.
Viewing is by appointment through Putterills Welwyn Garden City office.
