Summary
Bryan Bishop and Partners are delighted to bring to the market this wonderful three bedroom, two bathroom bungalow, set within a private gated development of a small number of similar residences, on the edge of the extremely desirable village of Digswell. Enjoying spacious and well proportioned rooms arranged around an enchanting walled courtyard garden, along with a detached double garage/workshop, this is a flexible, practical and well specified home graced with abundant style and charm.
Accommodation:
The solid oak front door, with decorative stained glass inset panels and full height window to the side, welcomes you into a spacious, square shaped entrance hall. From here a door opens into the adjacent kitchen, whilst double doors lead directly into the wonderful lounge/dining room to the right. Before you is a splendid curved wall of exposed brick rising up to the extended height ceiling, making a very attractive feature of the perfectly placed guest cloakroom within. Beyond, there is a large L shaped inner hallway running through the house to each of the three bedrooms and the family bathroom. Intelligent design places the public areas of the house neatly around the entrance hall, leaving the inner hallway to readily access the more private rooms, a valuable asset not always present in single storey houses.
The lounge/dining room is a fabulous space, flooded in natural daylight throughout the day thanks to two windows arranged across separate aspects as well as large full height windows either side of French doors that open out onto a delightful patio to the front. Certainly it is a substantial room at over twenty-nine feet long, imbuing it with a great ability to adapt and flex according to your wishes, but it also enjoys nicely balanced proportions as well as a fascinating roof line that soars up to an open vaulted ceiling over the top of the dining area, with a wonderful window set high into the end wall. Ideally connected to the kitchen just acros
The lounge/dining room is a fabulous space, flooded in natural daylight throughout the day thanks to two windows arranged across separate aspects as well as large full height windows either side of French doors that open out onto a delightful patio to the front. Certainly it is a substantial room at over twenty-nine feet long, imbuing it with a great ability to adapt and flex according to your wishes, but it also enjoys nicely balanced proportions as well as a fascinating roof line that soars up to an open vaulted ceiling over the top of the dining area, with a wonderful window set high into the end wall. Ideally connected to the kitchen just across the entrance hall, this is a terrific place for spending time as a family and entertaining guests.
With a large window overlooking the garden, the kitchen enjoys plentiful natural daylight as well as delightful views, and is fitted with a comprehensive array of wall and floor mounted cupboards around its generous perimeter, including decorative glass fronted display cabinets with internal lighting, and useful open shelving units. The smart white fitted cabinets are stylishly offset by the mottled white/grey/black worktops and splash backs, coordinating visually with the grey walls and grey tiled floor, and the whole kitchen is presented in immaculate condition. Strong ergonomic design ensures everything you need falls readily to hand, with a full range of integrated appliances incorporated within the fitted cabinets, yet still leaving ample floor space for a free standing double fronted fridge freezer, plumbed in for a water chiller/ice machine.
Beyond the kitchen the inner hallway extends around the property, giving access to the three bedrooms and the generous family bathroom, which boasts a separate bath and walk in shower. All of the bedrooms are generous doubles in size and all have lovely views out into the gardens. Two of them have full width fitted wardrobes, with the main bedroom also enjoying a lovely en suite shower room and separate access out into the garden by way of a set of glazed double doors. The super layout enables you to really use each room as it best suits you, and any of the bedrooms would ably perform just as well in other roles that may better support your lifestyle. The current owners have repurposed one of the bedrooms to be a family room/study/day lounge, but it could just as easily be a TV room, games room, teenage hang out space, arts and crafts studio or gym. It would excels in any alternate function, just as it would as a third bedroom.
Exterior:
The property is set within a spacious gated development, with its own double garage and plenty of guest parking. The bungalow is built around a generously sized private courtyard garden which is fully enclosed and secure, so is ideal for pets and children. Multiple access points from the house provide excellent connectivity between the inside and outside, which is a real boon because the garden is an absolute delight. Every room looks out over the space, displaying a masterpiece of curated landscaping and planting, featuring a huge variety of colours, textures and forms of plants, bushes and small trees arranged around winding pathways, lawns, separate patios and various seating areas. The house and brick wall that create the boundary make it a real haven of sheltered calm, with a carp pond and water feature adding yet more character to this stunning cottage garden, and a charming metal framed canopy providing a lovely sheltered spot outside the lounge, perfect for dining al fresco.
Location:
This lovely home is located within a quiet residential development of just a few exclusive residences on the outskirts of the ever popular village of Digswell. Welwyn North Station is within a five minute walk, from where trains reach London King's Cross in just over 30 minutes. The village of Digswell also benefits from local shops, St Johns primary school, the Cowper Arms pub, a tennis club and various other clubs and societies. Welwyn Garden City is a couple of miles away offering a wide and varied range of amenities. You can also walk for miles through the surrounding countryside along the many footpaths and bridleways. Within the area are many state and private schools including Sherrardswood, Haileybury, Duncombe and Heath Mount. The A1(M) links to the M25 and both Luton and Stanstead Airports are within a 30 to 40 minutes drive.
