vauxhall astra h - Car electrics dying - mjon07

I have a Vauxhall astra life 07 1.8 my electrics seem to be dying in the car . I have had trouble with battery not charging for a few weeks but now the windows won't open , the headlights on one side the headlight is on but not the side light on the other side vice versa . I have checked the alternator it's charging the battery correctly .

Could it be a bad battery ? .

Can Any one help?

If it starts ok and the battery is being charged by the alternator, then I would think the battery is ok . I would check for any water ingress in the engine bay fuse box and also the rear one ( if it has one fitted )
