**What the owners say**
We have lived in our home for the past 17 years, but sadly, we have outgrown
it as our 2 children need their own bedrooms. We will be very sad to say
goodbye to our family home, as we have made so many unforgettable happy
memories here over the years. The things that we will miss most about our home
is the beautiful views we have, the wildlife we find in our communal garden
and finally our beloved balcony, which was our savior during the covid - 19
pandemic, as this enabled us to still communicate to our neighbours, and
always manages to bring the outside in.
We will miss our home greatly, and our wonderful neighbours, as there is a
real sense of community here. We will miss the short walk to Welwyn Garden
City Town Centre, and being within such close proximity to all the amenities
that Welwyn Garden City has to offer.
We hope to have created a very loving, warm home, however it is time for our
family to move onwards, and we hope whoever buys this property will be very
happy, like we have been over the course of 17 years.
**About the west side**
Welwyn Garden City was founded by Sir Ebenezer Howard in the 1920s and
designated a new town in 1948. It was aimed to combine the benefits of the
city and countryside. Surrounded by rolling Hertfordshire countryside, Welwyn
Garden City was an escape from life in overcrowded cities to a place of
sunshine, leafy lanes, countryside and cafes. Emphasis was placed on the
Garden City's healthy environment. Today it’s a busy and bustling town with a
selection of shops, the Howard Shopping Centre is located in the centre of
Welwyn Garden City where you can find a selection of high street favorites
including John Lewis, there is also a Waitrose and a Sainsbury’s in the town.
Welwyn Garden also has its own quaint cinema in the town centre, showing the
latest films.
