1 bed maisonette for sale

Penn Way, Welwyn Garden City AL7

A standout opportunity to acquire a premium one-bedroom ground-floor maisonette within the highly sought-after Mirage Development, 0.3 miles from Welwyn Garden City rail station.

Unlike standard apartments in the block, this property uniquely benefits from its own private front door entrance and a magnificent, sun-drenched triple-aspect layout. With windows on three sides, the entire home is flooded with natural light, offering a bright, airy environment and complete privacy with no directly shared walls with neighbours. It is also set back from the main road so no traffic sounds can be heard. The views to the surrounding garden are impressive and calming. New, custom-made contemporary venetian blinds have also been fitted recently. The neighbours in these blocks are lovely, and there is a Facebook group for these blocks to stay in touch about developments, any issues, and to help each other out.

Smart Financial Living (Massive Monthly Savings)

Positioned as an exceptionally cost-effective option for first-time buyers and investors alike:
Bills Included: The monthly service charge (£141) uniquely includes all your heating and hot water consumption, saving you hundreds of pounds a year and protecting you against rising utility costs. The service charge has in four years hardly increased, and the management company responds quickly to any issues.

Zero Boiler Worries: The service charge covers the full service and maintenance of the building's communal boiler system. You will never have to pay for costly boiler repairs or replacements in the future.

Immaculate Grounds: The service charge also covers weekly maintenance of the surrounding communal gardens, which are kept in pristine condition year-round.

The Living Space

Entrance: A welcoming private hallway leading directly into the principal rooms, entirely avoiding busy communal building zones or shared corridors. A new mirrored cabinet was fitted a couple of years ago.

Living/Dining Room: A beautifully proportioned, bright space featuring large windows on multiple sides. Includes high-quality custom mirrors and bespoke white bookshelves, creating a highly spacious environment for relaxing or entertaining. The recently fitted high-end venetian blinds allow you to adjust the amount of light you would like at any given time. The lights in the whole flat also have dimmers on them which is useful for dimming the lights in the evenings.

Kitchen: A contemporary, fully integrated kitchen recently upgraded with new high-quality wood-effect worktops, a new 9KG washing machine, and a new electric oven and hob.
Master Bedroom: A generous double bedroom featuring a large wall-to-wall mirrored wardrobe providing sleek, expansive storage. In addition, there is a second ceiling-height cupboard.

Newly Refurbished Bathroom: Updated by the current owner to an exceptional contemporary standard. Features brand-new premium tiling on the back wall, a modern new toilet and vanity sink unit, high-quality replacement flooring, and a newly installed high-performance shower system.
