Entering onto the private street, 10 Welwyn, originally known as ?The Farm at Welwyn?, is perched overlooking its own 3+ acres. This property was built in 1940 by Mr. Richard Norris Williams, survivor of the Titanic and winner of Wimbledon Mens? Doubles in 1920.

The main entrance has a gallery hall with three sets of double doors granting access to the private patio that travels behind the entire back exterior of the home. To the left, you will find the attached 3-car garage with storage space and entrance to the den above the garage. This spacious den has high ceilings, a private balcony overlooking the pool, and a full bathroom. Currently used as a home office, this space can easily be transitioned into an in-law suite.
