Description
The Property - Built in 1910 for Mr D C Pearce, this early Garden City detached house was designed by the architect, E H Knight, and has been exceptionally well updated and improved without in any way diminishing its original charm and character. It provides two spacious reception rooms plus an excellent modern kitchen on the ground floor. There are three bedrooms and a modern bathroom on the first floor.
Constructed from solid brick with roughcast rendering externally, under a pitched tiled roof, the house benefits from a large boarded loft, replacement uPVC double-glazed windows and gas fired central heating.
The Outside - The house stands in a corner plot measuring approximately 117' by 36' (35.8m x 10.9m) overall. The front garden is screened from the road by hedges and comprises well stocked herbaceous beds with ornamental shrubs. Block paved paths lead to the front door and to gates to either side of the house which in turn lead to the rear garden.
The rear garden is some 48' (14.8m) in length (excluding the garage) and laid to lawn with paved patio, herbaceous borders, ornamental shrubs and a raised ornamental pond.
The detached garage is located at the rear of the plot and is approached via a block paved drive from Rushby Mead. The drive also provides off-street parking for two cars.
The Location - The house is very conveniently located on the south-east corner of the town centre, pleasantly close to Howard Park and Howard Garden, within the Letchworth Conservation Area and less than half a mile from the mainline railway station. Letchworth Garden City is on the London to Cambridge mainline and regular services run throughout the day. The fastest services to London King's Cross take just 29 minutes and Cambridge is 26 minutes in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is just a mile and a half's drive away.
Designed in the early 20th Century to combine the benefits of town and country, Letchworth Garden City was the world’s first example of this concept and succeeds to this day in achieving its aim. The town provides excellent shopping, schools, pubs, restaurants, green open spaces and other leisure facilities.
