Lanercost Close, Welwyn, Hertfordshire.

Hidden behind electric gates and surrounded by mature woodland, this exceptional detached family home extends to over 3251 sq ft of beautifully versatile accommodation and occupies one of Welwyn’s most exclusive private settings. Offering a rare combination of complete privacy and everyday convenience, it enjoys a peaceful woodland setting whilst remaining within easy reach of Welwyn village, highly regarded schools and Welwyn North Station. 

Designed to adapt effortlessly to modern family life, the accommodation offers an impressive balance of space and flexibility. A series of generous reception rooms can be arranged to suit your lifestyle, whether you require formal entertaining space, a family room, home office or playroom. Despite its size, the house retains a warmth and comfort that makes it feel every inch a family home. 

The kitchen is designed for everyday living, while the triple-aspect sun room provides one of the home’s most memorable spaces. Filled with natural light throughout the day and overlooking the beautifully established gardens, it is the perfect place to relax, entertain or simply relish in the changing seasons. 

Upstairs, the principal suite offers a peaceful retreat complete with a generous dressing area and beautiful woodland views. Three of the four bedrooms benefit from en-suite facilities, with the third bedroom’s en suite also accessed directly from the landing, allowing it to serve as the family bathroom; a practical arrangement that works equally well for family life and visiting guests. 

The gardens are a defining feature of the property, offering exceptional privacy and a wonderful connection to the surrounding landscape. A private gate opens directly into Harmer Green Woods, placing miles of walking, running and cycling routes on your doorstep, with easy access to Burnham Green, Welwyn North Station and the surrounding countryside. Whether it’s collecting coffee from the village, picking up fresh produce from the local butcher before a summer barbecue or enjoying a Sunday walk through the woods, this is a home that offers a lifestyle as special as its setting. 

Some houses are admired for a moment. Others become part of the life you were always meant to live.
