Property Details
THE PROPERTY
This hugely attractive double-fronted detached house enjoys a stunning woodland setting, with greenbelt to front and rear, and provides spacious and versatile accommodation, flooded with natural light. A much loved and well cared for family home over many years, the house now offers considerable scope for some updating and restyling. The ground floor provides three large reception rooms, plus kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, two WCs and well-designed storage. On the first floor there are four very good sized bedrooms, further useful storage, a family bathroom and separate WC. Additionally there is a large fully-boarded loft with rear dormer window. The house also benefits from gas fired central heating.
THE OUTSIDE
The house is set some 78' (24m) back from the road in a truly outstanding plot of 0.8 acre and measuring approximately 458' by 80' (139.69m x 24.4m) overall. Screened from the road by a tall hedge, the front garden is laid to lawn with herbaceous beds and borders containing ornamental shrubs and fine mature trees. The gravel driveway and forecourt provide ample off-street parking and lead to an attached double carport and additional closed garage. The spectacular rear garden is about 340' (103.6m) in length and falls into two areas. That nearest the house is a more formal garden, laid to lawn with paved terrace, rockery, herbaceous beds and borders and ornamental shrubs and trees and a potting shed and garden storage. The rearmost section is an area of unspoilt open woodland with numerous impressive mature trees, both evergreen and deciduous, and delightful woodland flowers.
THE LOCATION
The attractive village of Tewin, arranged around two village greens and nestled between Welwyn Garden City and Hertford, is a highly desirable and sought-after residential area. The property is located on the northern side of the village, which provides excellent local amenities including a community-owned village store/cafe/post office, two pubs, an historic parish church and a thriving primary school. The latter has a swimming pool, which is open to families during the summer holidays. The Memorial Hall hosts many community and social activities and other events. Sports are catered for by popular cricket, tennis and bowls clubs. Nearby Tewinbury Farm boasts hotel accommodation, dining and entertainments. The nearest railway station is Welwyn North, less than 2 miles away, which provides fast regular services to London King's Cross in just 34 minutes. Access to the A1(M) J6 is only 3 miles away. The nearby towns of Welwyn Garden City Hertford, Stevenage, St Albans and Hatfield also ensure that a wide array of facilities is within easy reach.
