Rayfield, Welwyn Garden City

Summary:

CHAIN FREE - Bryan Bishop and Partners are delighted to bring to the market this outstanding three bedroom, two bathroom family home set at the end of a quiet residential cul-de-sac in the ever popular Welwyn Garden City. This fabulous semi-detached house has been dramatically extended and remodelled on both floors, now presenting exceptional ground floor living space and three large double bedrooms within an unusually spacious corner plot. This property ticks all the boxes for modern family life and is a rare opportunity not to be missed.

Accommodation:

The pretty front door, with inset decorative leaded light glass panels, welcomes you into a spacious, bright entrance hall that stretches back through the house into an inner hallway towards the rear, offering a great extended view through the part glazed double doors at the far end of the inner hallway, through the kitchen/dining/family room and out into the garden beyond. The inner hallway, as well as having double doors opening into the kitchen/dining/family room, also has doors leading into the living room, a perfectly placed guest cloakroom, and a further door providing useful direct access into the kitchen area. There is a great flow to this property, with all of the ground floor rooms linking together through multiple access points, making it really work as a busy family space.

The front facing living room typifies this arrangement, with access from the inner hallway and double doors opening through into the family room area. It is a room bathed in natural light thanks to the extended height windows to the front and the aforementioned part glazed doors to the rear, and is comfortably large enough for multiple generously sized sofas and chairs. Offering a charming visual focal point, as well as cosy winter warmth, is a stone fireplace housing a traditional wood burner, sitting beneath a solid oak mantelpiece.

Occupying the whole rear part of the ground floor is the truly impressive kitchen/dining/family room. Being built in an L shape imbues the space with the ability to easily delineate separate functional areas within the substantial footprint of the overall room, making it practical and usable as well as flexible and adaptable, and the multiple access points to other rooms in the house and out into the garden ensure it is a superbly connected space for day to day life as well as a marvellous venue for entertaining guests. The whole room is flooded with natural light throughout the day, benefiting from a window to the side, glazed double doors to the rear and a set of five panel glass infinity doors, further enhanced by two large skylights set into the ceiling. The fitted kitchen area has a comprehensive array of wall and floor mounted cupboards providing generous storage space, along with a full complement of premium quality branded appliances integrated within the units, and designated floor space ready to accept a double fronted fridge/freezer. To the front of the kitchen area is an ideally placed utility/laundry room, allowing the main kitchen to be kept clear and clutter free whilst also providing a useful door out into the rear garden. The remainder of the room is left open plan to configure and furnish as best suits your lifestyle, with cabling for a smart TV sitting within a recess surrounded by neat fitted cupboards on the far wall. It is a generous space and in a delightful situation, with the two skylights above and a full wall of glass looking out from the room into the garden beyond, with the majority of that glass being fully retractable to seamlessly connect the inside and outside. Perfect as a dining room, family room, playroom, day lounge, it is just a lovely place to be and easily capable of hosting social events with a large number of guests - simply fabulous!

Upstairs the central hallway opens into the three bedrooms and the family bathroom. All of the bedrooms are comfortably large enough to be considered doubles, with the main bedroom being larger still, and incorporating a separate dressing area leading to a spacious en suite bathroom complete with separate bath, shower and bidet, as well as glass double doors opening onto a lovely Juliet balcony overlooking the rear garden

Exterior:

Being placed at the end of a quiet residential cul-de-sac makes this a lovely secluded spot, further enhanced by the open grassed area to the front. Mature hedging borders the front of the property, which is enriched by flowering Clematis climbing over the living room window, with useful separate access to the rear garden supplied via a gate and pathway along the side of the house. The rear garden is fantastic, south facing and much wider than the house due to it being a corner plot. It enjoys a wonderful open aspect as it gently slopes away from the house with a substantial paved patio running right across the rear, linking into the house through multiple access points. Within the garden is a timber summer house and a substantial shed, as well as a large expanse of lawn punctuated with specimen trees and flower beds. This is a wonderful garden for a family to play in, relax in and entertain in.

Location:

This property is perfectly located in the ever popular Welwyn Garden City, within a few minutes of the city centre with its extensive shopping areas, restaurants, bars and mainline railway station, from which regular and frequent services run north and south. London is an easy commute, with Kings Cross station just 25 minutes away. It also benefits from being close to all other local amenities including the Gosling Sports Centre, doctors, dentists and renowned schooling for all ages. Despite its residential location it remains within easy access of the motorway network via the A1(M).
