Summary - 52 BARNSIDE COURT WELWYN GARDEN CITY AL8 6TN
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Comfortable, low-maintenance flat near town amenities and transport links.
Two bedrooms with fitted wardrobes in principal bedroom
A rarely available two-bedroom retirement apartment in Barnside Court, placed opposite the Barn Theatre and a short walk from Welwyn Garden City centre. The flat offers a generous living/dining room, a smart fitted kitchen with good storage, and a sizeable shower room — a practical, comfortable layout for downsizers.
The scheme includes a Scheme Manager on site five days a week, emergency pull cords, a stairlift to the first floor and communal amenities: well-kept gardens, a residents’ lounge, laundry room and off-street parking. These facilities make daily living easier and help preserve independence.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with around 86 years remaining, an annual service charge of £3,078.66 (2024/25), electric storage heating and no ground rent. The building dates from the 1980s and has double glazing; it may suit buyers seeking a low-maintenance home rather than a modernised retrofit. The town centre and mainline rail links to London are within easy reach.
This apartment will appeal to buyers looking to downsize into a supportive retirement community with on-site management and communal facilities. It is presented as a ready-to-live-in option but buyers should factor ongoing service charges, the remaining lease length and electric heating into their long-term plans.
