Welwyn Garden City is close to the A1(M) giving easy access to London, and the Great North Road passes close by the A1(M).

Luton and Stansted airports are within comfortable traveling distance.
Location
Welwyn Garden City is one of the finest examples of modern town planning. It was built soon after the First World War by Sir Ebenezer Howard who was the founder of the Garden City movement.
It has a neo-Georgian town centre with residential and business estates laid out along tree-lined avenues and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. It is just north of the River Lea and conveniently close to the A1(M) motorway, which makes it a popular commuter town. It is a successful business centre, but also offers excellent leisure opportunities including the 126-acre Stanborough Park which boasts sailing and boating lakes alongside an outdoor swimming pool. The Gosling sports centre offers a dry ski slope, golf driving range, indoor and outdoor tennis, squash, a velodrome, gym, and bowls.
There are excellent indoor shopping facilities at the Howard Centre and Welwyn Garden City hosts a Fine Food and Crafts fair twice a month, as well as continental markets throughout the year. Campus West near the town centre offers a theatre, roller skating rink, and a library.

Help to Buy
If you want to purchase a home of your own, but can't afford to buy on the open market, Help to Buy could be your way onto the property ladder. The Government has created the Help to Buy scheme to help you take your first steps into home ownership.
With a Help to Buy Equity Loan the Government lends you up to 20% of the cost of your newly built home, so you’ll only need a 5% cash deposit and a 75% mortgage to make up the rest.
You won’t be charged loan fees on the 20% loan for the first five years of owning your home.
Visit Help to Buy SouthIf the home in the example above sold for £210,000, you'd get £168,000 (80% from your mortgage and the cash deposit) and you'd pay back £42,000 on the loan (20%). You'd need to pay off your mortgage with your share of the money.
