A bright, split-level two-bedroom apartment in a recent development, offered via Shared Ownership (55% share). The third-floor entrance leads to a contemporary open-plan living room and modern kitchen, with French doors and a roof balcony that extends living space for morning coffee or evening views. The fourth floor houses two bedrooms — one with an en-suite — and a family bathroom. Allocated off-street parking is included.
This home suits first-time buyers or couples seeking an affordable route onto the property ladder close to Welwyn Garden City centre. The location is walkable to the station (around 15 minutes) with direct trains to London King’s Cross in under an hour, and good road links via the A1. Local schools are nearby, and town amenities are within easy reach.
Costs and tenure are important here: the price shown is for a 55% shared ownership share based on a £350,000 valuation, with a minimum 5% deposit on the share. Monthly rent and service charge apply (rent increases annually each April). The property is leasehold with around 118 years remaining and an average service charge quoted, so buyers should confirm long-term affordability and mortgage eligibility with their solicitor and adviser.
Note the wider area statistics: the neighbourhood is classified as deprived with above-average crime rates. These factors, together with the service charge and annual rent reviews, are material considerations for purchasers weighing long-term running costs and resale prospects.
