This second-floor, two-double-bedroom apartment in Liberty House offers practical, modern living close to Welwyn Garden City centre. The open-plan kitchen/living area, contemporary fixtures and an en-suite make it comfortable for first-time buyers or sharers seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation. Allocated off-street parking and a short walk to the station, shops and Shire Park add everyday convenience.
The property is offered as 60% shared ownership (chain free) with circa 116 years remaining on the lease. Ongoing costs include a service charge of approximately £1,358.16 per year (£113.18 pcm) and rent on the unsold share of around £358.74 pcm — factor these into affordability calculations. The EPC rating is D and council tax band C.
Location advantages are strong: under 10 minutes’ walk to the city centre and station, quick access to A1(M), M25 and A414, plus local supermarkets very close by. Note the wider area indicators: higher crime than average and local deprivation classifications; prospective buyers should consider neighbourhood suitability and carry out local checks.
Overall, this is a pragmatic purchase for a first-time buyer wanting low-entry ownership with modern living spaces and good transport links. The shared-ownership terms and service/rent costs are the key financial trade-offs; buyers wanting 100% ownership or long-term investment stability should review the lease and running costs carefully.
