WHAT THE OWNERS SAY

In 2020 we were first time buyers looking for our first family home. We had been looking for a while and nothing had caught our eye until we viewed our lovely flat. We fell in love from the very first viewing. 5 years later and it has been the perfect first home. From the bright, open planned living space to the quiet outside area, it has been perfect for us. Especially backing on to the woods where we have been for countless walks and adventures. We have convenient shops a short walk away, excellent Primary and Secondary schools and plenty of green space! We hope the new owners will enjoy our home as much as we have

ABOUT THE WEST SIDE

Welwyn Garden City bears the legacy of Sir Ebenezer Howard, who founded the town in the 1920s and developed it into a designated new town in 1948. Conceptualized as a harmonious blend of urban conveniences and rural tranquility, Welwyn Garden City offered residents an escape from the hustle and bustle of overcrowded cities to a haven of sunshine, leafy lanes, open countryside, and inviting cafes. The town's design emphasized creating a healthy and vibrant environment for its inhabitants. Today, Welwyn Garden City's town centre stands as a vibrant hub teeming with activity and features an array of shops to cater to various tastes and needs. The focal point is the Howard Shopping Centre, home to popular high street retailers like John Lewis, complemented by convenient supermarket options including Waitrose and Sainsburys on the town's outskirts. Additionally, a charming cinema venue offers the latest film releases for entertainment seekers.

About Wrights...

Wrights was founded in 1983 by Melvin Wright with his first branch opening in Hatfield. Due to Melvin and his team's hard work and determination Wrights really took off and they were soon chosen as the re-location agents for British Aerospace.

10 years after Wrights first opened its doors in Hatfield, Melvin made the decision, with the help of his brother Graham to open another branch, so in 1993 Wrights of Welwyn Garden City was founded. Soon to follow was the Stevenage branch. Wrights had made their mark in Hertfordshire!

Today, Wrights are proud to still be an independent estate agency with its own unique values and ethos. We have been in business and grown in Hertfordshire for over 40 years and our experience in helping our customers to buy, sell or rent their properties is second to none.

The British Property Awards

We have been independently assessed and judged on a minimum set of criteria over a number of months to ensure continuity and stability.

The British Property Awards mission is to provide a useful award for the consumer on a local level, highlighting excellence, within their town, an award that can be trusted and used as part of their decision making process for the consumer. We are proud to announce that we have won this prestigious award in 2018,2019,2020, 2022 and 2023!

 

Rightmove Agents Giving Award

Wrights were nominated within the 'Special Fundraising' category for all the great work we have done supporting the Willow Foundation - a charity which provides special days out for 16-40 year olds who are suffering from life threatening illnesses. Through our endeavours we have raised over £22000.00.

5 Star service

Over recent times ratings and reviews have become an essential part of the selling and buying experience. Estate agents are no exception, especially when it seems impossible to differentiate one agent from another. We realise that without excellent reviews you may decide to use another agent, that's why we are proud to demonstrate our customer satisfaction

Giving back...

We are proud and privileged to work alongside The Willow Foundation. F

ounded by former Arsenal goalkeeper and TV presenter, Bob Wilson and his wife Megs. It is a lasting memorial to their daughter, Anna, who died of cancer aged 31. Anna's love of life and the enriching experiences of her own special days were the charity's inspiration.

Willow aims to provide unique and unforgettable special days tailored to the individual's needs. Willow is the only national charity working with seriously ill young adults aged 16 to 40 to fulfil uplifting and unforgettable special days. Since 1999 Willow has fulfilled more than 14,000 Special Days for young adults living with life-threatening conditions.

We are so proud of our fantastic team, who go out of their way to support the Willow and to think up new and exciting ways to help on Willow fundraising days bringing together the local community and many businesses in the area.
