Summary - 14, Birch Grove AL6 0QP
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large secluded plot, double garage and flexible living in sought-after Oaklands.
Four double-sized bedrooms with principal en suite
Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Oaklands, this spacious four-bedroom detached house sits on a large, secluded plot with woodland to the rear. The house offers generous, well-proportioned living spaces including a 24ft living/dining room, an expansive multi-function family/office room with roof lights, and a fitted kitchen with island and separate utility. The double garage and long block-paved driveway provide abundant parking and workshop potential, appealing to families who need storage and cars on-site.
Presented in immaculate decorative order, the property benefits from double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating and a southwest-facing rear garden with large paved patio — ideal for outdoor entertaining. There is clear scope to extend both ground and first floors, subject to planning consent, for buyers wanting to increase living space or reconfigure the internal layout.
Material points to note: the house was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, so certain structural or service elements may reflect that era; any modernisation beyond cosmetic updates should be confirmed via survey. Council tax is described as quite expensive, which will affect running costs. Planning permission is required for extensions and changes, and buyers should factor in consent times and costs.
Location strengths include excellent local schooling options, easy access to Welwyn village amenities, nearby nature reserves, and fast rail links from Welwyn North to London King’s Cross (around 20 minutes). The freehold tenure, very low local crime and very affluent area classification underline the property’s suitability as a long-term family home or a high-quality owner-occupied purchase.
