Summary - 22 CODICOTE ROAD WELWYN AL6 9NQ
2 bed 2 bath Cottage
Charming two-bed cottage with rare private river access and south-west garden.
Gated private access to River Mimram chalk stream
A rare waterside cottage on Codicote Road, this two-bedroom home opens onto the chalk-clear River Mimram—an uncommon and tranquil setting prized for wildlife and seasonal interest. The property sits over three floors, with a dual-aspect reception room featuring exposed brickwork and a working coal-burning stove that provides character and warmth.
The lower ground floor has a recently fitted kitchen with new appliances and direct access to the private, south-west facing garden which slopes down to gated riverbank access. Two upstairs bedrooms and a separate shower room give flexible accommodation for a small family, downsizer or weekend retreat; the main bathroom is in good condition.
Practical considerations are straightforward and important: the house is an end-terrace, built before 1900 with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated), double glazing installed before 2002 and mains gas central heating. EPC C reflects reasonable efficiency but further insulation or upgrades could improve comfort and running costs. The home occupies a small plot and is arranged over multiple floors, so storage and mobility should be considered.
Located within walking distance of Welwyn village amenities and well-regarded local schools, the cottage combines village convenience with a rare riverside aspect. Tenure is unknown and should be confirmed; council tax is moderate and flood risk is recorded as none.
