About
Situated within the highly regarded Oaklands area of Welwyn village, perfectly positioned for well-renowned local schooling, everyday amenities and picturesque woodland walks quite literally on your doorstep, this substantial five-bedroom, three-bathroom detached residence offers an exceptional lifestyle in a semi-rural setting, whilst remaining within easy reach of more vibrant neighbouring towns and excellent transport links.
Extending to over 3,400 sq ft of beautifully arranged accommodation across two impressive floors, this outstanding family home provides both space and versatility in equal measure.
The property immediately impresses with a grand and welcoming entrance hall, setting the tone for the generous proportions found throughout and providing access to the principal ground floor rooms.
To the rear, a superb dual-aspect 18ft living room enjoys an abundance of natural light and offers an elegant yet comfortable space for relaxation.
A separate formal dining room, complete with French doors opening onto a substantial patio terrace, creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living, ideal for hosting family gatherings and summer entertaining.
The stylish fitted kitchen/breakfast room serves as the true heart of the home, thoughtfully designed with both practicality and social living in mind, and leads through to a useful utility area and a downstairs cloakroom.
The ground floor also benefits from a generously sized bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, perfect for guests, multi-generational living or independent teenagers, adding to the flexibility of the overall layout.
Upstairs, the sense of space continues.
The first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with en-suite facilities, alongside a modern family bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms.
Each room has been carefully considered to provide comfort and functionality for a growing household. Externally, the property is equally compelling.
A substantial driveway provides extensive off-road parking and leads to a 22ft double garage, offering excellent storage or further potential.
To the rear, the beautifully landscaped garden has been thoughtfully designed to create a private and tranquil setting, with a generous patio and well-tended lawns.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of such scale and quality within one of Welwyn village’s most desirable locations.
To truly appreciate the space, setting and overall standard on offer, a viewing is highly recommended.
